   Good Lord, I can't let her see that!

   From the article:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bunch and his mother believe the iPod acted as an antenna, drawing the
lightning to him. There were tall pine trees nearby that didn't get hit.

But lightning and weather experts say that's probably not the case.

   No kidding it's not the case -- but I guess Apple can be sued a lot
more easily than Mother Nature can!
