It's 'lightbulb'.

If it was 'light bulb', it would just be a bulb that ain't heavy.

You bring up a good point... remember the airplane/conveyor discussion? Well, if there was a lightbulb on the airplane, and the conveyor was spinning at the speed of light, would the lightbulb light?

Hmmmm...

no it wouldnt, because the fact that it is moving at the speed of light, the "light" generated by teh bulb would be indescernible to teh human eye..
so therefore it would not "light" anything...

one of those "if a tree falls in teh forest " things.........



let the discussion begin

The Dark Sucker Theory

Every year, bright and eager young physics students are being misled by "scientific" dogma conspirators who claim that light, not darkness, is the stuff that moves through the universe carrying energy. This page is dedicated to those hardy, brave souls who know the deeper truth and aren't ashamed to admit it: that so-called "light sources" are really dark suckers, that "light" is nothing more than the absence of darkness, and that it is darkness, not light, which is the fundamental radiative transport mechanism of the universe

My light has burned out and now I’m in the dark all the time. That must be why I like dark beer. Sorry did not mean to stray from the subject.
Back on subject maybe there should be a light/ litebulb study performed. To determine the correct usage .

OK, I'll be the one to remind us that group buys are prohibited!!
