Scientific paper

Using the novel data set of the MACHO project, we show that three ``Blazhko
Effect'' RR Lyrae stars show nearly-pure amplitude modulation of a single
pulsation mode. This is strong observational evidence that the ``Oblique
Pulsator Model'' is the correct solution to this 90-year-old problem.
