    bulbs

    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

    "lamp"

    15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light
    bulb" is perfectly correct

    203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and

    111 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light
    bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum

    4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

    1 new forum member to respond to the original post 6 months from now and
    start it all over again

    How many sons does it take to change a light bulb for their elderly Jewish mother?

    None.

    It's alright, you go out and enjoy yourself while I sit here all alone in the dark.
