[TowerTalk] Lightning Protection Components

[Fred Hopengarten]

A very good friend of mine grew up in South Africa.  When he was growing
up, every elementary school child in South Africa was taught the
following question and answer:

Q:  What do you do when there is a rain storm with lightning?

A:  Lie down in the field and get wet.
