Is it okay to plug a power-strip into a UPS?

[Jon maddog Hall]

Ben,

Talking about the effects of a lightning strike:

As a co-op student many years ago, I was once nearly electrocuted by 13,600
volts and 800 AMPS.  Trust me, it did not take anything near a lightning
strike to turn an electrical engineer into a software person!
