Scott Worden won't say for sure whether he believes in the paranormal, but he doesn't dismiss the idea either. That's why Worden, a longtime dairy farmer, agreed to have two paranormal investigators inspect six crop circles Saturday that were found by a farmhand Monday in Worden's barley field. "Everybody thinks I'm nuts, but I just want to know what caused it. I know cows more than I know circles," said Worden, 37, through a sheepish grin. Worden runs the farm with his brother, Tim, and father, Darrell. Paranormal investigator Terry Fisk of Eau Claire said he would first and foremost be looking for evidencethat showed the formations were a hoax.
"You usually can tell how the crops have been laid down and if there is damage to the crops," said Fisk, 49, who in July investigated crop circles found in Chippewa Falls. Usually, plants are bent, not broken in crop circles whose causes are difficult to explain. In obviously hoaxed circles, the grains are broken. The two arrived at the site around 9 a.m. Saturday morning with cameras and tape measures. They also brought a Geiger counter, which measures radioactivity, and a TriField meter, an instrument that measures magnetic, electrical and radio waves, as well as microwaves.They were disappointed to find that the field had been harvested with a combine after the circles were created.It also appeared that many people had walked through the field."We like to compare the crop inside the circles to the crop outside the circles," said paranormal investigator Chad Lewis of Eau Claire, who has been investigating crop circles for 10 years. "Obviously, since this has been cut, we can't do that."The circles' proximity to the road - about 50 feet - could indicate a hoax."Maybe someone wants it to be noticed, plus, it's easy access," said Fisk, who, along with Lewis, hosts a radio program called "The Unexplained" that airs weekly in the Eau Claire area.Even the lack of activity found on the investigators' TriField meter could indicate a sham. But the duo won't dismissthe. ...

He said the stalks bent in exactly the same way as those usually found at crop circles. Smirnov said he now has...Dutch medium claims crop circle predictions

There was an unusual sight on the northeast side of Charles City this week. A field of sudan grass located at about 18th Street and Grand Avenue was dotted with areas where the grass was laying on its side, reminiscent of the famous crop circles that appear throughout England. Although the formations of bent grass didn't form geometric patterns like the crop circles do, their appearance was certainly out of the ordinary, if less than 'extraterrestrial.' According to the resi...Spanish field takes on uncommon characteristic
