Abstract

Progressive Lightning is a most suitable heading for the specific studies that these scientists made. First because it is the title under which all of them wrote at some time or other; second because their studies were truly progressive in advancing knowledge; and third because the dictionary describes "progressive" as "step by step advancement" reminding us of the "step" nature that their photographs showed of lightning channels progressing.
