excellent, spidey....but you forgot a few...

41 will post nothing but clip art

67 will claim the problem is not the bulb, but the wiring

63 will add that it is not the wiring, but the fixture

there will be a threadjack involving the proper use of ladders, this will consume another 3 pages, and add another 113 BWB

2 to post that the bulb wouldn't be out in the first place if it weren't for that *^%$&^%# Bush.

followed by 20 posting that Obama is going to require HID owners dim their bulbs because the firebolt owners are at a disadvantage.

Followed by 3 people requesting the whole thread be moved to the backfire board...

Don't forget the newbie that gets fooled into thinking he needs to change his blinker fluid in that light bulb (or is it lightbulb; or lamp).
