    I would have to say fire. The power of lightning is dwarfed compared to the power of our sun.

    Lightning is superior morally to fire because lightning gives you a thunderous warning before it strikes.

    No, they happen together... light travels faster and is therefore seen first. Sound is slower so it is heard last.. But they happen together.

    Nope. Thunder happens after lightning.

    "The air around a lightning bolt is superheated to about 54,000 degrees Fahrenheit (five times hotter than the sun!). This sudden heating causes the air to expand faster than the speed of sound, which compresses the air and forms a shock wave; we hear it as thunder. Since the bolt is actually several short bursts strung together, multiple shock waves are created at different altitudes; this is why thunder seems to rumble -- each shock wave takes a different amount of time to reach your ear."

    The more you know.

    Wikipedia is perhaps the single greatest thing I have ever seen in my life. Only wished they didn't delete information all the ****ing time.

    I think that google is far better...

    And I still stick with Fire. It represents passion and a lot of other things, and Lightning and Thunder only respresents wrath.
