Lightning's Two Electricity Types Linked in New Theory
The theory, outlined by Dr George C Simpson, argues that lightning arises when two electricity types produced by water drop breakdown separate in storms. Positive electricity stays near the earth while negative rises, and a strong discharge allows the two to meet. Voltage estimates reach around 190 million volts with currents from 10 000 to nearly 100 000 amperes. The article also notes news about mail boxes for air routes and a asthma remedy claim by Dr J D Kelles.
