"THE NIGHT THE DAILY MAIL
DIDN'T UNDERSTAND"...?
oO: 29 July, a huge design appeared
opposite the standing-stone circle of
Avebury, and shrouded the crop circle
phenomenon in controversy once again.
This latest design was reportedly part
of a huge experiment at the hands of the
national newspaper, the Daily Mail.
The newspaper's aim was to prove that
a team of well-organised artists could go
out in the dead of night and create a
large, convincing formation—which,
according to their article, would prove
that people could be fooled into believ-
ing crop circles to be genuine.
The article within the Daily Mail was
titled, "The night the UFOs didn't land",
but perhaps it should have have read,
"The night the Daily Mail didn't under-
stand"!
