The is the step in the graph about 25 -31 May 2001.

No. 25th May is the first circle listed in the database for 2001

Yes May 25 is the first. Then there are several but groups of several can
occur at any time.

All the graphs have steps
in them from time to time.

What you need now to do is understand what the graph is telling you.

Look at it again, this is what it tells you.

FIRST circles appear:
1999 - 12/4
2000 - 26/4
2002 - 6/5

2001 - 25/5

6 weeks later than 1999, 4 weeks later than 2000 and 3 weeks later
than 2002

This is exactly the correlation that I have been talking about and you
have been refusing to admit. The first circles in 2001 were LATE.

before then 2002 had 1 circle, 2000 3, 1999 5 or 6. The beginning dates for
the years is a fairly evenly spread distribution. Some year has to be first
and some last.

The "average" date for the first circle to appear in those 4 years is
2nd May. 2002 and 2001 are the only years to be later than this, by 4
days and 23 days respectively. Not my idea of an even spread.

Going back to 1992, the average date is 25th April - 2001 is *27* days
later that this. The only other years later than this average is 1993
(3 days) and 1996 (17 days). With a standard deviation of 13 over the
10 years, only 2 years stand out. 1996 and 2001.

An aside, it's pure coincidence that in March 1996 the BSE epidemic
came to a head and that mass slaughters took place in the UK

So to say that there is a "fairly evenly spread distribution" is to
ignore the evidence.

Dates of first appearance in Wiltshire according to database, undetermined
dates omitted.

80 Aug 15, 82 Aug 1, 88 Jul 15, 89 Jul4, 87 Jul 1, 91 Jun 9, 96 Jun 1,
01 May 25, 93 May 14, 92 May 10, 95 May 8, 02 May 6, 98 May 4, 90 May 2,
00 & 03 Apr 26, 94 Apr 23, 97 Apr 20, 99 Apr 12

So they have only been appearing in April since 2000. Could be hoaxes with
the more complex patterns more recently. I have not yet got through to the
FMD dates, but if there are more hoaxes now they could be interrupting those.

Taking the range of reported ones in Wiltshire back to 77 (unknown date) teh
1981 May 25 has 11 before and 7 after - It is pretty much to the middle.

What has been said about fairy rings on people lawns? Can the same thing
happen in a crop? Even on people's skin a fungal infection will sread out in
a circular fashion.


It's not a day or two - see the initial chart.
Even srpead from year to year for start.

Not chronologically they are not. 2001 is later than all previous TEN
years as well as later than 2002.

Not for date of first occurence.

See the numbers above. Check them
yourself - you have a table of the dates, since you quoted them at me
before snipping my entire reply.

I still have it in mind to go back to that.


I've had kooks from sci.skeptic attempt to go "real life" on me too - and
been threatened with legal proceedings and had my website suspended due to
some rather damning evidence hosted their that showed a well known "psychic"
being caught on video, cheating at his most famous parlour trick.

Though sometimes they are mimmicking themselves or showing what a conjurer
would do, and it gets taken as them faking.

"mimmicking[sic] themselves" ? Name one instance of this.

One.

I have never, ever, heard a self-confessed "psychic" or similar EVER
say they were mimicking their act or showing how a conjurer might do
it. I have heard one admit to cheating (only when caught) so, "I
didn't disappoint my audience".

Riiigghhtttt.

In the example I gave, the "psychic" kept a continual banter of "I'm
doing this with my mind" - even while the video clearly showed him
performing the "feat" with his hands.

I think this is sort of meant to build the energy so that real things can
start to happen?



This is the same one who a judge decide that the cost of a ticket (and
court costs?) to one of his shows should be reimbursed to a punter who
charged that "he had failed to perform the supernormal feats of
telepathy, parapsychology, and telekinesis he advertised. Instead...
[his] act consisted merely of sleight-of-hand and stage tricks.

When USA was broadcasting its space feats on radio into USSR in the Russian
language it didn't prove anything to the Russian people because the energy
was jammed.
