How many forum members does it take to change a light bulb?

br careful when changing a lightbulb it is dangerous. Make sure you always have the switch off and the breaker in the panel off. You can also save money since you already have bulb out by spending a little extra money and purchasing energy star lightbulbs.

Nineteen to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum.

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

Thirty-six 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.

Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs.

Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URLs.

Darn tootin' it's dangerous, that's why you should pay for the proper training, use only methods i approve, and ......never mind, you will just have to wait for the professionals to show up and do it for you. On second thought you will never be able to make the grade, just stay in the dark, wouldn't want you gettin' hurt, ya know?
