You gotta watch out for lightning, I was walking in some this evening, on a hill, just me and the dog, and thinking, dang they could find me here and figure it out.
Electricity just travelled through miles of dielectric (air) and a quarter inch of rubber will save you? Naw, that’s teravolts of EMF. Do you know why tires are black? Carbon. Conductive carbon. The car’s construction forms a Faraday cage of sorts but they get hit frequently (see later post).
I got hit in my 4 Runner at a red light. It almost seemed like it hit the glass of the sunroof but it was the luggage rack that was hit. I had the shade open, the sunroof closed and was looking directly out it when it hit. Brightest, loudest, and SCARIEST thing that had ever happened to me. I had to pull off the road because I couldn't see a thing and my ears were ringing bad. It was like I just stared at a welding arc for 10 minutes. The 4 Runner didn't even skip a beat, didn't hurt any electronics. The luggage rack was almost unscathed, the next morning when I could see again and took a good look, 3 of the plastic end caps were gone and all of the little plastic nuts for the slides on the rack were warped like they almost melted, never was able to loosen those again. Other than that the truck was fine. I am a bit more diligent about lightning safety these days.

I gotta hand it to Pfizer. Their excuses for vaxx deaths keep getting more creative.
She had to be vulgar even in this. Guess it's a bad habit.
