so now we should be able to find out how many times someone has seen this, how often it has been posted and with what different topics were used.
Not sure what catagory this puts me in.

not to mention, several posts of the same topic, a few threads away from each other, due to a lack of search, and then several smatterings of posts of how this thread is useless without pics, and then the smiley version of same pics reference, , throw in a few, you can't spell, and a link to a spell checker..... add in a midway rant about the political incorrectness of using incandescent lamps, in a greenhouse effect concious world. thus getting said thread closed and a reference to the all politics forum..........

"6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb""
Actually 7 because it's neither. It's a light bub.
But the more I think about it, it's really 8, because there's always someone talking about the light bub just to see concrete poured in the bed to lower the back.
You didn't even mention the discussion about why we need a water heater to heat hot water. (hot water heater)

I would go with an LED. They will run cooler and won't have to be changed as often. Let's discuss the pros and cons of bulbs (bubs) and see what we can come up with. Maybe if we did a group buy we could get a discount.
