     Well, the computer hasn't been hit by lightning, although I'm a 2 time   
   lightning strike survivor. Indirect strikes at 3 and 16 resulted in both   
   a severe shock, and nervous system damage. But, I carry no electrical   
   charge, and can be handled safely.

     I was going to originally call it "The Wall Cloud BBS". A wall cloud,   
   is the lowered portion of a cloud at the southwest corner of a severe   
   thunderstorm, in a rain free area. This is where a tornado is most   
   likely to develop. One of my first users (her son designed the lightning   
   ANSI I have at logon) suggested "The Thunderbolt BBS" for a name. I   
   liked it so much, that it "stuck".
