Nice, Terry, thanks.  I've enjoyed the growing data in this area of  
phenomena.  I'm looking forward to seeing how this will tie in with  
the gamma ray bursts that have also been recorded from storms.  It  
seems obvious (now) that the high current of the bolt discharge would  
create a strong acceleration field.  A more explicitly modeled  
mechanism will be exciting.
