Just to be clear, I was referring to the article, and not to the research it reported on.
But yes, point taken. I should have explained my criticisms of that particular article, rather than being generally dismissive of science reporting by non-scientists.
I could have said that I found the article to be confusing and misleading. About our understanding of the atmosphere's electrical potential, and about the particular research reported. But I just made a snide comment, and pointed to the Feynman lecture.
