   EV>Do You type that by hand or is that in a file You use?   
      
   EV>I'm curious because I've seen You write about thunderstorms before and   
   EV>what You do to keep things safe at home.   
      
     I type it by hand. I don't want the 3rd time to be the charm, when it   
   comes to a lightning strike. For that matter, I don't want to be like   
   the park ranger who was struck 7 times (he eventually committed   
   suicide).   
      
      
   EV>I remember a saying that goes like this:   
      
   EV>If You hear Thunder You don't have anything to worry about.   
      
   EV>If You see the Lightning and hear the Thunder You don't have anything   
   EV>to worry about.   
      
   EV>If You see the Lightning and don't hear the Thunder You might have a   
   EV>lot to be worried about.   
      
     For some reason, that makes no sense.
