Must agree, as , in my youth, had neighabor liveing across the street, in
Portland, OR., this on the valley floor, had her Electric Range struck by lightning, tho, must also agree with Doc, the odds are not much better (or worse, depending on your outlook!) of hitting the lottery. and, if your home is serviced by power lines on poles, there is USUALLY a GROUND WIRE , at the top of the pole line, and, as lightning USUALLY takes the path of least resistance, would be the object struck by lightning. It never hurts, tho to provide lightning protection, just for general safty. Jim NN7K "CW" wrote in message news:aMDpb.72275$mZ5.450665@attbi_s54... Not at all a dumb question. There are many people that think if it's inside you don't have anything to worry about (the ostrich syndrome). Lightning doesn't care much about your roof nor does static. Treat it like an outside antenna. "mBird" wrote in message |
