OK, I've seen this lightning bolt business mentioned about a dozen
times.  I'm puzzled.  I've gone through this section 3 times (to try to
reproduce this effect), and it has never happened.  After I teleport
the skeleton beyond the gate, I hear the sound of lightning bolts
exploding IN THE DISTANCE, but they have never zapped the skeleton.  I
always have to use an OH VEN spell (and usually a magic box) on the
critter to open the gate.

What gives?

Chris
