as "The-Tear-and-Slice", and "The Egg" [see Barry's sketch, below]. The crop was barley; in the vicinity were various additional types of vegetation: rye, wildflowers, pansies, goosegrass, and the odd rapeseed stalk. Above the Tear sagged the powerlines. In 1995, the Transmission of the beautifully laid Roundway Circles "came through" the powerlines intact, to the best of my knowledge without "attendant Energies" leaving their marks elsewhere in the field. But Birling Gap, as well as "The Turtle" of 1991 which also arrived beneath powerlines, held secrets for us.
The researchers write that a sliver (The Slice) of the Tear landed on one side of the powerlines, while the rest of the Formation arrived on the other. The two sections were about 30 feet apart; and each straight edge at which they had separated measured exactly 271/2 feet long. Approximately 700 feet away, an identical Formation (The Egg) had been Transmitted, but it was intact. I sense The Egg was intended to be the "control" for the "lesson". The lay in all three areas was very unusual: myriad dinner-plate-size groups of barley heads were spun together about a foot above the ground. The strange "suspended lay" included intricately manipulated nodes. While early reports of the lay's complexity generated appropriate excitement here in the States, to me the even more fascinating part was the following reconstruction of the Event by Barry and Andy:
Put simply: 1) two ellipses "came down from the sky", one of them through the powerlines; 2) the powerlines seemingly sliced off a portion of one of the Patterns; 3) the slice landed a short distance from the larger portion of the severed oval. What went beyond "simple" is that some E-M energies did not wind up in either the Tear or the Slice, but hit the powerlines and took off down them. The Energies tore along the electric wires until they came to a guy wire, descended the wire to ground, continued across the field to a metal fence, then paralleled the fence until they finally expended themselves. All the miscellaneous vegetation with which the Energies came into contact were "laid" the same way the Formations were, i.e., the tops of the various plants were spun together above the ground. From this incident, it is clear that the Energies themselves had been encoded with "how-to-lay" information.
