I wish there some sort of inoculation that hams could get that would allow them to discern the difference between a power line safety ground (required by code) and a lightning ground that is designed to dissipate large amounts of energy due to a lightning strike. The ham reflectors are full of accounts of putting in X number of ground rods, measuring the resistance at power line frequencies and being fooled into thinking they have a good lightning ground.
