August 20, 2000 Langdon, North Dakota - Today I talked with crop duster pilot, John Boe, who has been flying and spraying cereal crops for the past seven years around Langdon, North Dakota - a farming community near the Canada and Minnesota borders. Last month, on July 20th, he was flying over the Janelle and Randy Bata farm three miles west of Langdon when he saw what looked like a tinkertoy of half a dozen circles connected by a path in a wheat field.
August 20, 2000 East Kennett, Wiltshire, England - This weekend I learned from crop circle researchers, Ed and Kris Sherwood of Millennium Research in Santa Monica, California, that when they were in Wiltshire this summer doing a meditation experiment, the couple had a close encounter with a helicopter and two unidentified aerial craft. The date was July 31st around 11:30 PM and the location was the East Kennett square inside a circle formation. Part of their meditation experiment was psychic photography, to photograph with a flash camera the air around them in an effort to capture images of luminosities and translucent spheres that increasing numbers of people have photographed the past several years. The exact source of the images is still a mystery. Their camera was flashing in the darkness when they first heard a loud helicopter approaching.
August 17, 2000 Woodborough Hill, Near Alton Priors, Wiltshire, England - This past Saturday night of August 12, 2000, around 10:30 PM, three of us had climbed Wiltshire's famous Woodborough Hill which has been a central focus for crop formations since the phenomenon seriously began on a global scale in 1990. With me was Andrew J. Buckley, a graphic artist from Manchester, England, and his friend, Hazel. Andy had videotaped six small, white, glowing lights moving over the wheat field between Woodborough Hill and Pickled Hill on July 18th and wanted to visit again to see if any more would turn up.
July 16, 2000 Wiltshire, England - In the past week, there have been nearly a dozen formations in southern England and five of them emerged between July 15 to 16. Charles Mallett and his wife, Frances, have been studying, photographing and drawing crop formations in England for some time and produce a great web secton at the cropcircleconnector.com called C& F Phenomenon. I talked with Charles this afternoon about what happened this weekend.
July 6, 2000 Wiltshire, England - By the first week of July 2000, with so much of the summer yet to unfold, the crop circle mystery has been more global than 1999. Thirty-six crop formations have been reported in England, eighteen in Germany, three in The Netherlands, two in Spain, two in Italy, two in the U. S., one in Russia, one in Canada and one in the Czech Republic. In the past two weeks in England alone, two of the most extraordinary formations of the past decade appeared. The checkered one featured at the top of this report emerged in a field of very green immature wheat. Researcher Charles Mallett of Horton, Wiltshire discussed the Windmill Hill pattern at the web site where he and his artist wife, Frances, produce C & F Phenomenon Research Field Reports.
June 21, 2000 Sabillasville, Maryland - Part 4 of the interview with Bruce S. Maccabee, Ph. D., Research Physicist at the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) in Dahlgren, Virginia begins with green fireballs, the FBI and the Soviet threat. On May 1, 2000, his book The UFO/FBI Connection was released detailing his research since 1976 into FBI documents and knowledge about the UFO mystery.
June 20, 2000 Sabillasville, Maryland - Part 3 of the interview with Bruce S. Maccabee, Ph. D., Research Physicist at the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) in Dahlgren, Virginia begins with the clash between the FBI and USAF over UFO investigations. On May 1, 2000, his book The UFO/FBI Connection, was released detailing his research since 1976 into FBI documents and knowledge about the UFO mystery.
"Objects that were flying and recorded on a theodolite camera at White Sands Missile Test Range in New Mexico were flying at 150,000 foot altitude and were about 30 feet in diameter. We had nothing that could approach that altitude then. Even the high altitude balloons only went up to 100,000 feet. And of course, the balloons did not move fast. The unidentified objects moved very fast. Here is a document which I guess you could say proves that UFOs are real."

Currently, Dr. Maccabee is still in high energy laser research and is trying to develop ways to protect sensitive devices such as eyeballs or sensitive viewing instruments from damage by high powered, very brief laser pulses. I asked him what provoked him to write his new book about the FBI's involvement wth UFO investigations.
