From the observations it was found that the intense cusp fluxes observed on Oct 14 were preceded by 35 hours an enhancement seen in the radiation belts on Oct 16. The tick marks and labels for L should be included on at least one of the panels of Figure 2. I suggest showing them on the bottom panels. Without tick marks and labels it was difficult to follow the discussion of this figure. There also should be mention that the white labels in the panels correspond to day of October 1996.
Pitch angle is misspelled in the text.
Again I regret rejecting this paper. However, in my view the interpretation is so faulty and shallow, this paper should not be published. If the authors would limit the paper to the experimental results, I would support publication in spite of the conversational style which lacks precision. In the first version I objected to the vaguely described acceleration mechanism. In the second version this section was clarified enough to convince me the mechanism was incorrect.
