What does MIT say about ionization and lightning??
take a guess.

Jax,
They're all fools here. Some want to insulate their boat but the ionization potential renders insulation useless, let alone the effects of induced currents; they want to inject ions in the vicinity of their boats, yet to create enough potential to neutralize lightning it would, in fact, generate enough potential to cause lightning from their own boats; because they don't understand lightning, electricity, or atmospheric electrodynamics, they claim that lightning is magic - defies all physical laws; they want to ground their boats to make it part of the lightning discharge circuit -increasing the chances of getting struck!; the science teacher claims some special, hidden knowledge of electricity, but yet is not practiced in the art, he should stick to poetry. Ah yes the fools suffer, some even buy wonder products from the black magicians. God bless Iron Joe of the rusty Faraday cage! What doesn't get him in a thunder clap will slowly rot out his hulk by electrolysis. There's a simple method to reduce the chances of being struck by many orders of magnitude by towing a lightning distraction bouy. It's proven many times over.

Phil,
Why do you make so many assumptions? Do you do this often? It's a dangerous habit and will only cause you embarrassment and heartache. Are you Jaxie in drag? Do you agree with a man who says electricity has nothing to do with mathematics and in the same post uses math to describe the potential of lightning? You claim that "they're all fools here" - it seems to me that every post has pointed out the futility in such systems. Did I miss the post you refer to? The fact is that the science teacher claims no 'hidden' knowledge of electricity, and said only that it follows strict rules of behavior. Would you care to argue that point? The science teacher never claimed to buy into lightning protection on a boat, and therefore, has no such system, are you assuming otherwise? Do you see any post in which he defends these systems, or are his questions merely conversational in nature? Are you afraid of friendly discussion? I'll discuss poetry OR electricity with you. You can begin, I'll respond. Better yet, stick to posting your boring version of the truth in politics. At least then you're easier to ignore. Scout "Phil Morris" wrote in message link.net...

Yes, it's my guess as to what pushed your brain through your eardrum.
I have a question for you now tough guy, even though you wisely chose to ignore my last challenge: you wanna tell me what MY opinion is regarding lightning protection on boats? I've read what MIT has to say, what the U.S. Navy has to say, what the NLSI has to say. I also wanted to know what sailors had to say. I can't figure out what your role is here. Village idiot I suppose. Scout "JAXAshby" wrote in message ... do you know what lightning is? |

The only method that "might" have some benefit is to anchor near someone with
a taller mast than your own. It's just a theory, of course, but it has always worked for me! BB actually, owning a St Christopher medal is no less effective. |

Look for the angry genius preaching on the soapbox and shaking his fist at
the sky; anchor near him; it'll be Jaxie. Scout wrote in message ... On Mon, 23 Aug 2004 02:05:41 GMT, "Scout" wrote: Phil, Why do you make so many assumptions? Do you do this often?

Make sure you use a copper cable as a tow line or it won't work.
By the way, this last paragraph suggests that you believe lightning protection IS available. So which is it? Are you schizophrenic? John Kerry, is this really you?
