How many forum members does it takes to change a light bulb? 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs 1 to move it to the Lighting section 2 to argue then move it to the Electricals section 7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs 5 to flame the spell checkers 3 to correct spelling/grammar flames 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp" 15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct 19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum 11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum 36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty 7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs 4 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's 3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group 13 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too" 5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy 4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" 13 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs" 1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again. | ||

hilarious...but you forget the 10 that post about something the light bulb/lightbulb/lamp illuminates and get TOTALLY off topic in a hurry. | ||
| Ray_maines |
and only God Himself knows how many more forum members will rise a dust storm because the light emitted from said lamp / light bulb illuminates either a Playboy magazine or a copy of Michael Moore's latest book. | ||
| Crusty |
You forgot the one Psychologist to ask, "Is the light bulb willing to change?" | ||
| Dasbuell |
OK... watts your point!!!  (formerly dasxb9s - still without a clue) | ||
| Doughnut |
Is the light bulb American made, or a rice burning bulb?   | ||
| Spiderman |
You forgot 1 post to point out how Dyna's a jerk and shouldn't be posting on a light bulb board if he no longer has a light bulb | ||
| Peejay |
Also...You forgot to post that the bigger light bulb is better!!! | ||
| Doughnut |
Remember, it's not the size of your bulb, but the way you flick the switch.  | ||
| Cataract2 |
Why do I get the feeling the lurker post was for me? lol | ||
| Zip |
Don't forget ... one to tell the light bulb that he better become a sponsor , or go illuminate somewhere else. | ||

Very observant. May I add some more?  5 to post on how they modified their light bulb and made it perform so much better 1 to post an advertisement and hyperlink to his online light bulb store 1 to tell the advertiser to take a hike 3 to decry the enforcement of the no advertising by non-sponsors policy 1 foul mouthed jerk to make insulting personal attacks on others not agreeing with his opinon 1 to warn against making insulting remarks attacking others 2 to decry the censorship waged upon the foul mouthed jerks. 5 to agree with the board policy and to explain the true meaning of "free speech." | ||
| Court |
Oh . . . and one to tell you his light bulb is brighter and was invented first. | ||
| Newfie_buell |
This is too funny!!!!! | ||
| 2bbuell |
And 5 to expose a picture of a coming 2007 bluer lightbulb model from Austria, and 10 that wish that they had not bought their 2004 white lightbulb made in the U.S. because of it. | ||
| Hootowl |
And of course, 1 to say that their light bulb puts out 160 watts and lights up the room SO much better than the 100 watt ones we are using. | ||
| Charlieboy6649 |
and an occasional, "You really should check the KV before posting newbie!" 3 replying that that was uncalled for... | ||
| Peejay |
Do ya think the 12S Light bulbs run brighter and longer than the 9S???? | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
And 1 tell you a partial story about his close contact with the bulb inventor & reminding us to have him tell us some day. | ||

| Mr_grumpy |
You forgot 1 poster to tell the rest of us that it was an American who invented the lightbulb, 2 more to argue whether or not he was a Republican or a Democrat & several others to make sure everybody knows what the US military is doing & has done to protect the freedom of lightbulbs everywhere.  | ||
| Mikej |
Is it a Fundamentalist light socket, or a non-denominational one? | ||
| Newblaster |
And one more to point out to Mikej that we're talking about bulbs. That second link was light sockets, you may want to start a different thread for that... | ||
| Bomber |
more to the point, is it AC or DC? | ||
| Midknyte |
"And 1 tell you a partial story about his close contact with the bulb inventor & reminding us to have him tell us some day. bwahahaha! | ||
| Tucsonxb9s |
And 1 to mention that the Italians make damn sexy light bulbs but they're a bitch to maintain.... | ||
| Mikej |
New..., I knew that, just a minor bulb/socket tangental topic drift.....  | ||
| Newblaster |
Of course, if you want to go to aftermarket sockets, you really should check out the carbon fiber ones. | ||
| Starter |
And the post to refer the poster to the search function followed by 10-20 post refering back to whether or not the original poster should have/not used the search. Followed by the original poster claiming they did and got no usful hits. | ||
| M2me |
In one post Chaser perfectly explained the whole forum experience! Where is the BadWeb light bulb changing rally going to be next year? I'd like to do some serious bulb changing and not just stand around talking about it! |
