I guess what baffles me is the apparent confusion around having or not having gas. It seems almost like people in all-electric homes think that not having gas means they can't be struck by lightning. While the damage may be less severe, it's still likely to be pretty messy. A house backing onto Canal St last year (or the year before) had a 4 ft hole blown through the roof. No fire, but a huge hole nonetheless. I'd still get the LPS, even with an all electric home..
Steve,

Thank you - you are the voice of reason....
