The problem with the term 'open mind' is that it often becomes an excuse to avoid drawing a conclusion even when the evidence is overwhelming.

Oh well, there you go then - I haven't been in a corn field since I was a child, so can't dispute that (Now live in the country again after years in the city but it's mostly livestock round here, not crops): Back to the mundane world, goodbye imagination! If it can be demonstrated it can't be argued against in my opinion. Still it was a nice dream of mystery while it lasted but dreams and imagination are for children not adults, artists not scientists (The entertainment industry runs on imagination, even if it's sometimes inspired by fact).
