Thanks Wolram, but has that paper been published?

Obviously we reference material published in news and other media sources, but if a specific and obscure, new, or otherwise generally unknown theory [not common knowledge] is to be used as a scientific explanation for a phenomenon, then either the theory must be found in a paper published in a journal listed at the links below, or the poster must demonstrate that the source is an applicable peer-reviewed journal recognized by the mainstream academic community.

I doubt it. BE's in Ball Lightning sounds pretty... different.
