Subj: Report of Sighting
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I left a report of an unusual cirlce found in an alfalfa field by a farmer in
|
||
|
|
Kansas using your Report Sighting Program. I did not witness this circle,
|
||
|
|
but it was reported to me by the farmer (my father in-law) over the
|
||
|
|
Thanksgiving holiday when I was in Kansas. The 18 foot diameter circle (18
|
||
|
|
inches wide) appeared in July 1990, sometime between the time when the
|
||
|
|
alfalfa was cut down and the time it was raked (several days). The color of
|
||
|
|
the "residue" was blue-grey and very different than the color of the newly
|
||
|
|
cut alfalfa and the growing alfalfa plants. The farmer, who has lived on and
|
||
|
|
farmed this land for all of his life (over 50 years) has never seen anything
|
||
|
|
like this before. He showed the circle to his wife and to a neighbor before
|
||
|
|
destroying it with a rake. He did not take any photographs of the circle,
|
||
|
|
but he did keep a small jar of the alfalfa plants with the residue coating
|
||
|
|
He is willing to give the sample to anyone interested in analyzing it. He
|
||
|
|
has given me permission to report his finding. His name is: Robert
|
||
|
|
Ackerman, Sr.

I have seen the sample and agree that it is unusual. It has the appearance
|
||
|
|
of a fungus or mold growing on the alfalfa, which would not necessarily be
|
||
|
|
unusual except that it appeared "overnight" and that it was in the shape of a
|
||
|
|
perfect circle which covered not only growing alfalfa plants but also a newly
|
||
|
|
cut windrow of alfalfa. Please call me at 873-5951 (work) or 872-8393 (home)
|
||
|
|
if you have any questions.
