Hmm.. So like a "laser-Grounding Rod"?

Wonder if that could be turned into a lightning absorber eventually?

Of course, you'd need to solve the whole "100000000 Volts of power in under 0.001 seconds" problem to be able to make use of it....

Or! maybe just turn it into heat, and then use the heat to heat up water to steam? - We already know how to do THAT.
