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
the whole thing all over again.

I copied and sent that to Hugh as soon as I read it. What makes it funny for us is that he works for a company that imports lighting products & they are setting up an internal message board.
