Is it Possible to Collect Electricity from Lightning? Or Harvest Any Type of Power? We know that we can melt sand and make glass... As shown In the movie Sweet Home Alabama...

Conclusion: YES, but we don't know how to Make a Profit off it. So why bother?

*AI Overview*
Collecting electricity from lightning is technically possible but practically and economically unfeasible. While a single bolt contains immense, high-voltage power (~
joules), it lasts only microseconds. The unpredictability, extreme surge capacity required, and massive energy dissipation as heat/light make harvesting it for power grids inefficient compared to solar or wind.

Potential Future Methods:
Energy Harvesting Before Strikes: Rather than catching a strike, research suggests collecting atmospheric potential directly from clouds using tethered balloons or tall structures.

Advanced Storage: Some research suggests utilizing highly specialized, advanced supercapacitors to manage the rapid discharge.

Spoiler Alert!
In the movie: they hired a professional glass blower to make props simulating the lightning created glass sculptures...  (the Simon Pearce glass company and artist Matt Janke)
Is that a surprise that Hollywood is not real???




AI Overview
In Sweet Home Alabama (2002), the character Jake creates "fossilized lightning" sculptures by using metal rods to attract lightning into the sand, which melts to form glass. While based on the real, rare phenomenon of fulgurites, the movie inaccurately portrays the ease and artistic precision of forming intricate, clear glass sculptures on a beach, which are usually brittle, dark, and underground.

My last mushroom trip was with my parents. We went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and I munched a few mushrooms every once in a while... So I was never concerned about overdosing because I just took a little bit and then waited 15 minutes and take a little bit more... Anyway... Mom and dad were touring different parts of the museum than I was and I found out later that Mom... Being in a wheelchair... Was frightened by all the shouting and running children from an elementary school tour... And she had a very bad experience... And in fact, that was the very last time she ever left the house to go do anything... Except to go to the doctor's office... She became a total shut in and lived the rest of her life at home... Mainly because... She's already gone out and seen the world and realized that it actually sucked... And there was no real need to go visit horrible places ever again...

And it's a good idea to eat a tiny amount of peyote and then wait and then eat a little bit more because otherwise you end up barfing if you eat too much too fast... And what's the hurry???
