Yes, those glass-like formations that occur when lightning strikes sandy ground.

Given the sandstone structure of which the Grand Canyon is a part, if medved's "Cosmic electrical discharge" theory for the formation of the the Canyon were correct, one would expect to find HUGE fulgurites in the area, but I've never heard of any being reported. How odd......

Did you ever get a response from "medved" to this question?
