Third Scientific Paper Published
on Crop Circle Work by BLT Team
The BLT Research Team announces the June, 1999 publication of its
third scientific paper, 'Dispersion of energies in worldwide crop formations,' presenting
results obtained from on-going crop circle research. Published by the Scandinavian
Society for Plant Physiology in it's journal Physiologia Plantarum (105:615-624),
co-authors W.C. Levengood and Nancy P. Talbott present findings which further support the
hypothesised involvement of organised ion plasma systems, demonstrating that node changes
in crop formation plants, in a number of different events, can be directly related to
fundamental concepts of electromagnetic energy absorption through the atmosphere.
The results of a 1997 control study carried out in Maryland (USA) are also
presented, indicating that over-fertilisation and gravitropism cannot account for the
documented plant changes. Additionally it is demonstrated that details of flattened,
intertwined crop patterns regularly observed inside the flattened crop areas can be
described by the application of fluid dynamic principles governing the interaction of
rectilinearly moving vortex pairs.
The BLT Research Team is most grateful to British field-personnel Barry Reynolds, Andy
Thomas and the East Sussex field team, Peter and Jude Stammers and the Wiltshire field
team, British crop formation photographer Steve Alexander, US artist Cheryl Gordon,
and the very hard-working George Reynolds, who implemented the 1997 Maryland control study
for us. Without the efforts of these people this paper would not have been written.
All of these people, and several hundred others in countries around the world, continue to
cooperate in an effort to enlarge the scientific knowledge available about this very
interesting phenomenon; we are inspired by their continuing enthusiasm and hard work and
most thankful for their support and friendship.
Copies of this paper (as well as the preceding two) are available from the BLT office in
Cambridge, MA (address above) for the cost of Xeroxing and postage. The entire
"BLT Information Pack", which includes the 3 published scientific papers plus
lab photos of plant abnormalities noted, various lay-articles, and a sample "lab
report" of the type issued on each crop formation studied and the results obtained in
a particular case, is available (by mail) for $25 (US) to Canada and the US, or for $30
(US) to Europe and the rest of the world.
