I was even working then, starting to shut down the system, when I saw a bright light out of the corner of my eye. If you've ever been within 100 feet, say, of a strike, you know it -- or if an electrical box gets hit. At work once we saw the boxes in series along the highway blow from the current shift.
I thought the stereo was fried, but I plugged it in once more before dumping it, and it works -- but half the wall socket no longer works! So, next time we get an electrician (to move the bedroom wing thermostat, so the big room doesn't always trigger the A/C) I'll ask him to check the sockets in that room.
And I'll start backing up to the gig stick again (I have an Iomega backing up, but the stick is easier to sort out!)
