User:Borealdreams/Lightning Science and Related

I'm using this page to aggregate all the pages out in the wikisphere pertaining to lightning in one way or another.... I doubt anyone knows exactly how many pages there are or if there are duplicates, redundancies, contradictions, etc. This should be interesting! Feel free to use the talk page to discuss your thoughts on the matter.

I am not very good at wiki formatting, so I would appreciate any assistance. I am approaching this from technical & scientific standpoints primarily, so please bear with me.
