Yes there are people who use rope and boards to make crop circles, but
when they do they always break the stalks of the crops that they lay
down. But some of the crop circles are found with the stalks bent
down *without* any damage. Something that the investigators and the
twonk circle makers haven't figured out how to accomplish yet.
