If you're going to demand cites, why not provide one for this assertion? At
the very least you're misunderstanding the fact that lightning produces ozone.
The hole in the ozone over Antarctica is a little large to be repaired this
way. It's 11 million square miles, or three times the size of the U.S. That's
one heck of a lot of lightning.
