I enjoy the romanticism of such bodies of contemporary mythos personally. Even when I think it's a load of trip (that typo is worth keeping methinks..) it still makes me smile for the inevitability and humanity of the thing! I'd have thought as someone who enjoys folklore in all it's forms, you could enjoy it on similar terms? After all, the circle makers didn't publicly reveal themselves for a long time, and a body of popular 'circle lore' had already constellated around the mystery by then.
