There are some pictures of the damage if you follow the link from this page: http://www.cropcircles.hippy.com/ Note that there are some annoying pop-ups associated with the above site. I don't know about any copyright issues.

Try this for 1b, showing the moat and taken in Feb from the top of Waden Hill: http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/post/11002 This (again for 1b) shows the first site of Silbury, when approaching the Avebury landscape on the Ridgeway from the south, though the arrow is necessary: http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/post/10010 This for 1a: http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/post/10007 All can be provided in greater detail.

Careful then, you might generate a mathematically mystical alignment of carrots.

Yes - but you're missing half of life. A common sense approach would indicate that people produce empty crisp packets and ritually twisted pieces of man-sized tissues, articles of such geometric complexity, such as many of the crop circles, are practically beyond human ingenuity. The arrangement of the figures, which are so often next to large henges, is such as to be practically impossible. They occur throughout the world - wherever there are standing crops - but are concentrated in Britain, generally, and Wiltshire specifically. There has to be a reason for that. Society's explanation - students with planks - is bunkum. Gerald Hawkins, no less, derived five new theorems from the geometry of the shapes. I used to trek around with this man's Stonehenge book in my rucsac (so I know to trust him). The influence of crop circle aesthetics on the original design of the henges must be considered and this is possibly a better explanation for the disposition of the Thornborough Henges, for instance, than the usual astronomical one. Whether the patterns occur like those of grains of sand on a drumskin and iron filings on a piece of paper, or are directed by an intelligent source, is a separate and different question. x
