Whoa, Chris!

I think the father of the 'ion plasma vortex' --as a crop circle
explanation--was none other than Dr. Terence Meaden. See his self-published
"The Circles Effect and Its Mysteries," Bradford-on-Avon, 1989.

He's got one passing reference to Devereux's "piezoelectric waves," none to
Persinger.
