Re: Error in Wikipedia article: Faraday's law of induction

Another thing I have been wondering about is treating the Earth as a
OPFHG. While there are not conductors as we think of them extending
outward from the Earth, there actually are some, as well as a stream
of particles. So I wonder how much of this is charge from the Earth
rotating in its own magnetic field. There are some strange things like
"lightning sprites" emerging from the tops of storm clouds, suggesting
electrical fields extending much higher.

Storm clouds are high voltage generators (Armstrong and Kelvin). As such
they must send electrons in ALL directions.
