Lightning Talk
summary
Explains lightning as sequential electrical and thermal processes: atoms with light, fast electrons get ripped off create local charge imbalances; charged plates and hot rising gas set up convection that concentrates charge into a positive feedback loop; when enough electrons separate a gas becomes plasma and a massive current column forms, heating the tip and sustaining the discharge. Offers qualitative mechanism and metaphors but gives no measurements, tools, or experimental data to validate the claim.
