How many forum posters does it take 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 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs 53 to flame the spell checkers 41 to correct spelling/grammar flames 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive 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 156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of their "acceptable use policy" 109 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum 203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and lightbulb forum about changing light bulbs be stopped 111 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum 306 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 27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs 14 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 33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too" 12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy 19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three" 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ 44 to ask what is a "FAQ" 4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" 143 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 "face it....perhaps your only purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others!"

Yeah, Stinger's still stuck in the old 'flint and steel make spark' mindset... <img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle> (Just kidding, buddy...) “Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.

Okay, that's just beyond the limits of good taste...

The only thing that seems to be missing from the list is the hijacking of the thread for some F-16 or F-18 bashing.......<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> "Insert trite message here"

Nope, we're actually going to attempt to keep this one on course, for as long as possible, anyway. Nice try though, Sparticus. "Retreat, hell! We just got here!"-Captain Lloyd Williams, 2nd Marine Division, Belleau Wood, France, WWI

No he's saying that the list in M&M's post is missing hijacking. Overkill??? I'd kill a fly with a howitzer if I had one.

What we need is some big assed swords to smash the lightbulbs. Then none of it will matter. LOL, M&M this is proof that almost anything is entertaining when you got this motley crue discussing it. "Trample the wounded, hurdle the dead."

Think about that question again bigross......why would they EVER have braille on an ATM machine? Is the screen in braille? How would they know what the screen said as it changed from one to another? Its one of those govt things gone crazy! "face it....perhaps your only purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others!"

Absolutely hilarious!!! You forgot a couple though... 5 posters emailing the webmaster to request that order must be restored. 2 posters asking for technical specifications of the light bulb and 3 view rotatable drawings in CAD format. 1 poster saying that it is all a waste of time so he is going to drink beer and surf porn. And some clown who always has to stick in the "You forgot a couple though..." line and try to correct your posts.... get muddy

What about the one who joins the thread late, Doesn't read it properly, Picks up one interesting sentence like "Leather Clad Lesbian Twins" And then tries to join in not knowing what the hells going on... BTW, it's actually a Vacuum Restricted Electroluminant Filament Device "A .44 magnum beats 4 Aces everytime..."
