I recently heard that there is this new capacitor technology being tested in Florida to see if it can capture the electricity from a lightning bolt. Looking at this photo and seeing the windmills on one side of the photo, and lightning bolts on the other side of the photo, it is almost like nature is approving of the the idea... -- neurosurgeon-to-be
