    Lol

    Thought I would post this, got it off an email list I take part in.. it is kinda funny, but I think to some extent, it rings true.

    How many list members does it takes to change a light bulb?


    One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been
    changed.

    Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the
    light bulb could have been changed differently.

    Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.

    Seven more to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing
    light bulbs.

    Five to flame the spell checkers.

    Three to correct spelling/grammar flames.

    Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another six
    to condemn those six as stupid.

    Fifteen to claim experience in the lighting industry and give the correct
    spelling.

    Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take
    this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum.

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

    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 URL.

    Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this
    group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group.

    Thirteen to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including
    all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"

    Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they
    cannot handle the light bulb controversy.

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

    Thirteen to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions
    about light bulbs"

    Three to tell a funny story about their show dog and a light bulb.

    AND

    One group lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start
    it all over again.


    This is a TEST of the sense of humor (or humour) network This is just a TEST.
