I had to laugh pretty hard at #2, and think I have better odds of falling out of a plane because the door fell off...:grin:

Damage to Electrical System

I had a customer email today about damage done to her appliances from lightning last night. How would you test the electrical system for damage?

#2 is on all of the newscasts in the Washington, DC area today. They are trying to make it sound like wearing an IPOD is almost suicide. This is similar to the e-mail I received yesterday warning me to NEVER use my cell phone while it is connected to the charger because this will result in electrocution! Some people need to get a hobby so they don't have so much time on their hands.
