[Ignoring that remark about the thunder.]

A ship is powered by wind, yes? The wind catches the sails and propels it forward. A candle is fueled by the wax and a fuse of sorts. These kindle the flame and ensure light. Similarly a bullet is fired from a gun by the application of a powder charge. The charge is ignited and propels the bullet forward. In each of these cases fuel, power and consequence go hand in hand. How then can it be that the lightening 'powers' this ice-box, but another force entirely is responsible for cooling its contents?
