Caisson, See those white towers next to the titian? Those are lighting arresters. They emit a charge that is opposite that of lighting so as to prevent a charge from going up from the ground. to put it simply. Also take note of the swill fins attached to the towers. Those cause the wind to swill around the towers instead directly at. They were invented by an engineer at AMOCO. As you can see I have too much information in my head to think clearly so I just buy DELL and forget about it. <ggg>
