I don't know how that follows from what we've been
saying recently, but I am happy to agree.

Self-inflicted dimness is still dimness.

You may suspect; but ...

  There was no in-flight damage to, or malfunction of, the
  aircraft's structure, powerplants, or systems. There was
  no evidence that lightning caused any malfunction of
  essential systems or caused structural damage.
  -- from report NTSB-AAR-74-5

Believe me, if there had been, the captain and FO would have
pled that afterwards (they both survived).

There is one possible lightning-based factor brought up in
the report, but it isn't what one might think:

  Other than the CVR malfunction, there was no evidence of
  any other malfunction caused by lighting [sic] in the
  aircraft's electrical circuits, including those circuits
  which involve the navigation and communication systems.
  Although the pilots were unable to recall lightning
  strikes near the cockpit, it is possible that lightning
  might have had an adverse effect on the pilots. If
  lightning had struck near the cockpit, the pilots could
  have been temporarily blinded for 10 to 20 seconds - a
  sufficient amount of time for a pilot to lose control of
  an aircraft on final approach.

EASY CHEESE STRAWS
cat: cracker, snack
yield: 36

2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/3 c butter
1 ts Worcestershire
1/4 ts cayenne
1/4 ts dry mustard
1/4 ts salt
1 c all-purpose flour

Heat oven to 400F. Thoroughly blend cheese and butter. Stir
in Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, mustard, and salt. Add the
flour and mix well. Chill dough for 30 min or longer.

Remove dough from refrigerator. Take 1 Tb of the dough and
roll into a 10" rope and cut in half to form straws. Place
on cookie sheets; repeat with remaining dough. Chill in
freezer until straws are firm, about 30 min.

Bake 8 to 10 min. Cool.
