It was pretty wild!
You should make a trip to the midwest in the summer time… reminds me a little of that.
Awesome footage. I couldn’t believe it that night. I honestly cannot remember the last time I’ve seen a lightning storm like that. It was relentless.
Just incidentally, I like your fleur-de-lis. Does it have significance?
Closest memory I had to a lightning storm like that was in 1988/89. I was in Jr. High and living up in the Rocky Mountains West of Fort Collins. The valley I lived in was lit up for hours from the many strikes. Though it didn’t have the cross lightning, or cloud to cloud action I saw in the storm videoed above.
As in regards to the fleur-de-lis (the stylized lily symbol at the end of my posts) it doesn’t have any traditional European or coat of arms personal meaning to myself. It came with the theme I decided to use, which does have personal meaning to myself due to the flower at the top and the organic look of the stylized lily at the end of my posts and pages. I believe that as conscious beings we have natural rights to be free and have liberty. Growth is a process and I want to help our society reach its potential. Like a seed growing to a flowering plant it needs care I think that we need voices of reason and free thinkers. I don’t claim to be right in all the different theories I have and share with people – I just want people to be more cognitive and have some skills to be rational.
Very nice answer, In Theory. Thank you.

To those reading these comments and wondering, what flower at the top and what fleur-de=lis? I changed my theme recently. I still fully believe that conscious beings we have natural rights to be free and have liberty, but will have to pass that message on with my words rather than the above stated symbols. The site is always evolving, and function beat form this time.
