       Can anyone explain the phenomenon of ball lightning?  How fast does
it move through a room, what materials can or cannot it go through, what is
it attracted to, how is it generated, and has anyone had any true
(unaltered, no fish stories please) experiences with it??  Any info greatly
appreciated.
