1 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum
6 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 wrong URL's were posted and then post the right ones
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

5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy
4 to ask "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"
