Subject: [CHAT] Ah, spring...
Was awakened at 3 AM this morning by a thunderstorm. At 3:05, we had a
lightning strike--so close I could hear it sizzle and there was no
separation between flash and boom; they arrived simultaneously. I think
I levitated, right up and out of the bed. Next thing I knew, I was in
the kitchen and I'm sure I didn't touch the floor to get there. I've
got no idea what, if anything, it hit. Cautiously, I went outside,
smelled the ozone, and looked around. No damage, no fires, no nothing
that I could see. I know, at 3 AM you can't see much, even with a
flashlight. So I went back in, made a pot of coffee, and down-loaded
the NYTimes crossword.
