Have to say I agree with you. I was about 6 years old and gathered in front of my house with my brother and a couple of other friends. The lightning strike hit in the road about 25 feet from us. Oddly, it missed all of the taller trees, telephone poles, houses, chimneys, tv antennas (remember them?), etc. So much for Mr. Goodman's theory about lightning hitting the tallest object.
