Same goes for natural phenomena it seems. @Ewan McIntosh: Absolutely correct Ewan - I didn't mention the fact we were actually in complete agreement for the most part as it adds a sense of drama - which is part of the Denki Difference! :-) Thanks again for prompting me in to action, and I look forward to reading your own thoughts once you have a chance to blog them. Good luck with the workshop! @ Stew: it’s an extension of Clarke’s 3rd Law – “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Same goes for natural phenomena it seems.

That's indeed the title of my workshop tomorrow afternoon. Wish me luck in finding the answer! As I said, I was being a bit flippant ;-) http://twitter.com/ewanmcintosh/status/2869078710
