Struck By Lighting: Ouch, That Hurt

FAX · 12:16 AM

In my continuing and somewhat exhaustive efforts to provide vital and up-to-date information of value and interest to the members of ChiefsPlanet, I am pleased to present this important and informative new thread entitled, "Struck By Lightning: Ouch, That Hurt".

It has come to my attention that the 17th Annual Lightning Strike and Electric Shock Survivors International World Conference is being held in Pigeon Forge, TN this coming year. According to the Farmer's Almanac, the weather should be pretty clear which is expected to increase attendance.

Last year's conference "Survivor of the Year" was Linda Cooper. She has been struck by lightning four times. Once in front of a post office, once while making a phone call at home, once while washing dishes (the lightning traveled from the sink to her arms), and the last time through an open car window. Linda is currently looking for both a new husband and her right eye.

The current record holder is Roy Sullivan, a park ranger from Virginia, who was struck by lighting a total of seven times. Roy is unfortunately dead now (suicide by gunshot wound) but his remains are now powering the city of Cody, Wyoming.

I'll be posting some important data about this subject in the future. In the meantime, if you, or someone you know, has ever been struck by lightning, please let me know so that I might pass the information along to the conference organizers. Thank you for your time and attention.
