Deadly lightning strikes

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Deadly lightning strikes

Post by bookworm »

Lightning strikes have killed 50 people in the past two days.
In the entirety of last year it happened 51 times. So in two days it happened as much as it had the previous 365.

I thought "being struck by lightning" was the cliche statistic used to show something isn't likely to happen.
