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
156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of their "acceptable use policy"
109 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum
203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and lightbulb forum about changing light bulbs be stopped

You shouldn't change lightbulbs. They only just go getting broken when you're spinning inside.

It's also advisable to find some soot coloured paint for the ceiling....

I have no idea how 3 threads got in there. That really bugged me, but Pele took care of it.

A sticky is something other forums have. It's a way to keep a thead at the top of the list. Usually it is used to inform members of something important. Like the rules for a section or other similar announcements.

How do you get coloured ligth bulbs? Does it require more HoPers to change it? But more importantly, how much fuel would it take?
