Topband: "Missing" Buried Radials for a Monopole

Tom,
Do you think that radials --either elevated or laying on the ground--
radiate? Or does all of the radiation come from the vertical monopole under
the radial system?
There is a recent thread about this on the antennex.com Antenna-discussion
forum, which I originated. I tend to believe that while there is a local
field around the radials, it does not go far. The far-field radiation only
comes from the vertical portion.
