Fun stuff at $DAYJOB

So as most of you already know, I work with an electronics startup that makes lightning and storm detection equipment. One of the projects I have at the office is maintaining a Weblog of storm and lightning related stuff–not directly as an advertising vehicle, but more as a neat-stuff-about-lightning deal. When the company’s Web site eventually gets redesigned (and sweet Jesus, does it need to be redesigned!), the new site will have an entire lightning education section, but in the meantime we’re keeping a separate blog for fun stuff.

And, I have to say, I’m actually very proud of it. Check it out: Stormy Weather.

  1. I find the whole blog to be offensive, in that it treats the theory of lightning as if it were a fact when, by your own admission, there are plenty of holes in that theory, things that the scientists can’t explain, and billions of scientists around the world agree that your entire meteorologist doctrine is collapsing!

    Fortunately, we DO have an authoritative source for information about lightning- one that people have centered their lives around for thousands of years. It’s called Norse Mythology, and for the sake of your soul I urge you to call out to Odin the All-Father and his son Thor, let them into your heart, and learn where lightning really comes from!

    Of course, your web site doesn’t even acknowledge the Thor origin of lightning, and preaches that streamers and differential electrical potential and other made-up “scientific” ideas are the only explanation, so obviously you’re already part of the global meteorologist conspiracy to suppress alternative theories that conflict with your own religious views. I hope that Ben Stein makes a movie about you!

    Is it any wonder that the rampant moral decay of our society coincides with the rise of meteorology? TEACH THE CONTROVERSY!!!
