THUNDER (na na na na na na na na na)

[anigo]

Had a great thunderstorm overnight. I LUV thunder. Today, just surfin' around, I looked up thunder and how it works. Then I looked up lightning and sailboats.

I always wondered what happened when lighting hit a sailboat. I've asked a couple of times, but nobody's ever given me a straight answer. Now I know why. Cuz apparently it's all bad. (Unless you have a lightning protection system, in which many people are still in disagreement with.)

That kinda sucks, because it's very cool to be sailing through a thunderstorm. Now I'll be afraid.

So here's the question for the day (ala itzwicks style of posting).

If you are in a situation, such as out on a sailboat where there's no chance of reaching safety within 3 hours, and danger approaches, would you rather be aware of the danger, even though there's not a damn thing you can do about it, or would you rather be completely oblivious. You might as well enjoy yourself, since getting toasted is completely out of your hands.

I think I'd choose the latter.
