I was looking at Google maps, and I stumbled upon this part of Washington state:

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&hs=1F1&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&q=low+gap,+washington&oq=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=Low+Gap,+WA&gl=us&ei=gk-QS8bLK9Xp8Qb-yuD2BA&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=image&resnum=1&ved=0CAgQ8gEwAA

What's up with the crazy circular fields? Can't say I've ever seen that before

I realize this thread isn't about Michael Glapion but hear me out


[b]Michael Glapion is a thief and a liar!!

My name is Robert Wesner. I own Leather Mystics (http://www.leathermystics.com).

I am a leather crafter from the west coast who had a booth at the 2009 Carolina Renaissance Faire near Charlotte NC.

Michael Glapion came into my booth with his girlfriend and bought almost $300 worth of stuff from me and used a credit card. When I ran his card that night, it bounced.

When I called him he claimed it was a bank error. Days went by and he wouldn't get it cleared up. When I threatened legal action and criminal charges, he said he'd send us the money via Paypal with his mother's credit card. All went fine and we got our money. 2 days after we left town he (or possibly his MOTHER) filed a reversal with Paypal and Paypal yanked the money back out of our account.

He now claims he knows nothing about the reversal but still refuses to make good on the $300 worth of hand-made leather he STOLE from us.

I'll be offering a cash reward for information to his current whereabouts.
You can reach me through the website listed above.

I will be posting this information on every web site I can find for the rest of my life.

THIS THIEF BELONGS IN JAIL!!!

Its pivot irrigation. They rotate the irrigation system around so that it evenly covers all the crops which forms a circle. Imagine drawing a circle with a compass, same concept.

its almost like they do something to make the field grow more in a perfect circle, like they revolve something of some sort

you'll see those all over the place if you fly in the western US...and yeah, it's due to the way they're irrigated.
