{Trailhead} Has This Happened to You?

This looks interesting. "Puzzle" was easy and I sent an e-mail with the answer in it. I'm still waiting for a reply. (I still don't know if I really sent it or not though..) Anyways here is the text that got me interesting.

Quote:

Has This Happened to You?
No time to explain. I need to know what's going on. I'll explain everything if you e-mail me.
You're going to have to trust me. you'll be able to tell if it has been happening to you too.

I emailed him with
subj: time will tell
body: what...

the response I got was:

Quote:
Things have been happening in my life lately. Have you ever though that things where only based on fiction? I did too until these things started happening. Have you ever been attacked by a Minotaur with a kid name Percy helping you fight it off, or jumped by people in black robes calling themself the "Organization"?
I've been searching for people having these things happen to them too. If you are please reply back.

*ETA*the subject of the above response from Ven was:

Sending Postcards From a Plane Crash

I'm not sure about either of these, but that first thing about the Minotaur sounds like a Harry Potter reference, and the "Organization" may be Organization XIII from Kingdom Hearts.

Couple of things:

The subject of my first email from Ven is the title of a fallout boy song I guess (according to google).

I received another email with the subject
Quote:
DRM
(which turns out to be a lightning detecting device)
The email says:

Quote:
I might not be able to believe everyone. Something happens everytime this happens to a person. Can you tell me what it is?

Ven


You can click on the word something to be taken to a photo of lightning here (i did not desteg so feel free).

Sending Postcards From A Planecrash is the title of a song on Fall Out Boy's first album, Take This To Your Grave. Not sure if it's relevant, but just getting it out there.
Also, I tried searching for something that happens everytime a person is struck by lightning, but no luck. Anyone find anything about that?

What happens when one gets struck by lightning? Well, the obvious answer is 'you get shocked'. I would be surprised if it was that simple, though. Perhaps 'static'? Or, 'you get hurt'? Well, I suppose some people haven't gotten hurt by a lightning strike(lucky them). Hmm...I'll be looking for answers.

EDIT: Wow, this lightning research is less than encouraging...

"It is concluded that there exists no safe time interval during which a human is free from direct strikes,"

So apparently if you hear even the FAINTEST thunder, you should take immediate lightning safety measures (a Google search would tell you what those measures are.)

EDIT2: This is a good site for lightning strikes, and kind of funny too. http://science.nasa.gov/newhome/headlines/essd18jun99_1.htm Perhaps the list at the end of " Most Typical Disorders Associated with Lightning Strikes" might have some answers?
