was covered last month.

How many online forum Rhodes 22 group members does it take to change a
light
bulb?

changed.

light
bulb could have been changed differently.

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

53 to flame the spell checkers.

41 to correct spelling/grammar flames.

6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb"...another 6 to
condemn those 6 as anal-retentive

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".

this
discussion to a lightbulb group

203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and
lightbulb group about changing light bulbs be stopped.

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

306 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.

27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs.

14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the
corrected URL's.

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.

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

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

19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three".

4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ.

44 to ask what is a "FAQ".

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

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

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