Crop Circles to Forest Rings?
The scientific method," Thomas Henry Huxley once wrote, "is nothing but the normal working of the human mind." That is to say, when the mind is working; that is to say further, when it is engaged in corrrecting its mistakes. Taking this point of view, we may conclude that science is not physics, biology, or chemistry—is not even a "subject"—but a moral imperative drawn from a larger narrative whose purpose is to give perspective, balance, and humility to learning.

I actually spent some time trying to track down more pictures of this phenomenon, unfortunately, all the ones that were easy to find were already published in this article. Interestingly, it also turns out that a number of oil/natural gas deposits in southern Ontario correlate pretty closely to localized geomagnetic anomalies.
