Question:

Were there any ways of drawing away lightning before the lightning rod was invented?

In my story, the character needs to think of some way of protecting one house from being struck by lightning. The story is set at a time when people didn't have any real understanding of electricity. The character is a very intelligent sort of person, however. What solution can he think of?

Answer:

Real men don't need no stinking gloves. Real men aren't even in the NFL, but out right now protecting our Country whether that is the Army, Marines, Navy, Air-force, Firemen, or your Local Police.
What are HRC's accomplishments? Riding into power on her philandering husbands shirt tails? Failing to keep peace in the Middle East? Allowing Russia to expand? Sending American jobs Overseas? Blaming a video for her failure to protect our embassies? Making the rich richer and poor poorer through corporatism? Destabilizing not only the Middle East but much of the world? Allow China to defraud the world economically? Giving Iran a path to nuclear weapons?
Absolutely agree with the first poster. Change her sheets, then put her right back into her bed. Don't do any chatting. Make it very business-like. You may have to do it a few times, but eventually she'll get the hint that the throwing up is not effecting you. Just act like it doesn't even bother you. Don't say yuck or anything. Just ignore it, let her know you need to change her sheets, put her back in bed and say goodnight. My daughter never threw up, but went through a stage where she wanted me and wanted to sleep in our bed, so I refused but slept on the floor next to her crib for a few nights. Everytime she'd scream for me, I'd just tell her to lay back down and go night night. It worked! She sleeps in her bed all night without a fuss. You could always try this too.
