All the news from the peanut gallery and where all the nasty trash talk fails miserably.
It can get NSFW-ish here: you have been warned!

The stars are found by snapping the small dry twigs which have fallen from a cottonwood
tree. Look for the growth wrinkles in the bark. There will often be several on one twig.
The wrinkles look a little like the wrinkles in a flex soda straw. Hold the twig close to
the growth wrinkles and snap it quickly. Some twigs may be too green or too rotten, but
many will produce a five point secret star. With a little practice, you will know which
twigs have the stars hiding inside. You can see the star best if you shade it from the sun
and look straight in at the broken end. You can also enhance some stars by rubbing them
on fine sandpaper. A sanded star will usually show up better if you moisten it.
Interesting. I just know nature doesn't do straight anything. Some anthropologist back in the 1800's came up with the best analogy about the mindset between Native Americans vs European settlers. In nature, Indians never saw anything "straight". Everything "flows". But Europeans built straight picket fences and houses that were square or rectangular. 30+ years ago when they discovered Lechuguilla Cave in NM, they spent years exploring it and wondered whether it was connected to nearby Carlsbad Caverns. Somebody was exploring deep one day and radioed "Got it- Found it". Through a crack in the rocks using his helmet flashlight he saw a straight line. Nature doesn't do straight. It was a hand rail in Carlsbad Caverns.
If nature don’t do straight explain slate used in roofs.
And Mica. And quartz crystals.
What are starting, a mood ring business or something?

Bamboo trees may look "straight" but they bend in the wind. And no way those granite slabs could be considered "straight". They have notches and shit.

If you don't cut your grass, will it turn into trees too?

Well, the only time your grass looks "straight" is after you mow it and weed eat it with European machines. Orientals just got into making them because of the profits.

My point is when Native Americans were looking around, 99.9999% of the time there were no arrows flying around. And is that supposed to represent a spiderweb. Spiders are nature and neither makes straight lines.

i'm not so sure about that. if you attach a sticky piece of silk to something and then stretch it tight across and attach it to something else, its hard not to create a straight line. something about two points determining something.

Here is a photo from inside Lechugilla Cave. Where do you see any "straight" lines? It's all molded by time both below and above ground.

This is the crystals the idiot is talking about. Crystal Cave Mexico

That is "straight" line geology. Notice the gear the explorers have to wear. Suffocating heat and deadly Hydrogen Sulfide gas. No Indians ever saw or visited there. End of discussion.
