I FOUND THIS BIT OF INFO FOR YOU HOPE IT HELPS BUGBOY To this day the lightening rod itself is used as a metaphor for a person or a thing that invites controversy. Franklin made only one mistake with his lightning rod. It seems that the pointed rod actually attracts lightning. Tesla would later improve the rod by giving it a blunt end, making a strike less likely, but still drawing off the charge. HI DAVID,
