So you have...faith in your description? (@Itnetlolor.)

Not entirely certain, as my EDIT would show. Like stated, it's been a good while since I last took some classes related to the topic. This is more a thought of what goes on during a storm when lightning strikes.

I'll find some material to cite from anyway to sound less, what my grandma would say, "like a guy with a paper-ass." or something to that effect. To explain what that's supposed to mean, it essentially is her way of saying [citation needed], or else you don't know what the hell you're talking about. Or more precisely, do your research before talking, otherwise you're talking out your ass.

EDIT:
:looks down:
Okay, that explained better than I did. Sounds somewhat similar to what I said. I think my description would be better/easier to explain to a child, I guess. Plus, it'll make them think lightning is cool (being explosions and all in my description), and also remind how dangerous it is still.

Sound is generated along the length of the lightning channel as the atmosphere is heated by the electrical discharge to the order of 20,000 degrees C (3 times the temperature of the surface of the sun). This compresses the surrounding clear air producing a shock wave, which then decays to an acoustic wave as it propagates away from the lightning channel.

(ok, perhaps  I should have gone forward with this from the beggining, instead of pulling that [citation needed] shit)

  I'm just a bit confused here; how could I have seen your edit if it was after my post? (I hadn't even looked during my post, nor got a warning, so I don't know if you've just edited your post multiple times, and that's why the timestamp is later.) Also, the fact that combustion is considered "cool" is no reason to give a flawed explanation. And this is assuming that there are young children on the forum to read such an explanation...(For explication;) What was going through your mind, beyond what you posted?

What the hell's going on here? It's not like he said "THIS IS FACT! YOU MUST BELIEVE ME!". He said throughout the post that he wasn't sure.

Where do magnets fit into this theory?

This deserves recognition.  Anything with Phoenix Wright does.

Riotous laughter was had.

OBJECTION! I totally agree.

[Jervous]

Why are you doing this.

Beat Epic Battle Fantasy 3, finally. Final boss was kind of a pushover(especially compared to the boss right before it *shivers*). Poison is a cheap move, but most tough enemies are vulnerable to it.

Wright says he left the library at 7:30PM. The evening. That sounds plausible for being at the library all day. The only suspicious part would be the travel time between home and the library, and his gamertage being in use in that timeframe.

Had an epic venting/crying session. Feel much better overall now.

Why are you doing this.

Hold! What you are doing to us is wrong! Why do you do this thing?


...I keep coding.  I can't seem to stop.  :V  I don't mind.

[Jervous]

Who are you people.

I don't mind either.

They generally do the body/mind/soul good, despite being a sign that the body/mind/soul wasn't doing very good before. Just be sure to keep the vent gases from hitting another person in the face, or else they'll get burns. And we don't want this pent-up stuff to do more damage.
