Dave,

I'm confused.

Why would NASA use them on their launch sites when they
published a paper saying they don't work? K1TTT published a
link to those papers.

If NASA does use them, why did they never put them on their
wind generator projects or mention them in the article link
I posted?

I know lightning makes some success claims, but they sell
the things. Relying on them for unbiased fact is like asking
the Pope what Bible is correct.
