Yep. BONDING is critical. Inadequate bonding is a primary cause of 
damage from lightning. There's a fairly new ARRL book in the topic by 
Ward Silver, N0AX, to which I contributed. While you're waiting for it 
to arrive, study the slides for the talk I've done at Pacificon, 
Visalia, and to several ham clubs.
