  11.         I've read that in theory it's possible for ball lightning to exist.  I
  12. also think that I've heard that it's been created in a laboratory.  Is this
  13. true?  Has there ever been a confirmed sighting of it in nature?  Also, if one
  14. were to encounter a ball lighting, what would you do in order to avoid being
  15. zapped by it?
