Re: OT: About Space Elevators

What I want to know is how they are going to ground the darn thing. Electricly. Isn't there an electrical charge difference between earth's surface and high altitude? Sounds to me like this would be the Mother of all Lightning Rods!

Who needs terrorists when NATURE itself will take care of the problem.
