Most importantly, as a melee attack, you still add your strength bonus to hit when making a melee touch attack. I would also refer to Brillient Energy weapons, which retain the strangth damage bonus despite being made out of light...Anyhow, that indicates to me that a touch attack is still delivered with some ammount of power. And Power Attack comes with its own built-in weakness. So i'd allow it.</blockquote>
