I am interested in references, current and past, regarding experiments and 
theory regarding lightning, specifically ball lightning. I have heard there is
some work going on in Japan with artificial ball lightning generation attempts,
but have no information.

The literature on these topics is somehwat sparse, no doubt a result of the 
rarity of the natural phenomena, and the inability or great difficulty of 
artificial generation.

Any comments/reference recommendations would be appreciated.

					Thanks,
