And one to point out, "Hey, there's this cool light bulb made by Nuendo. It runs on the power of its own filament. It doesn't need electricity, and you don't even have to screw it in."

How many forum members, who mix-in-the-box and say they like the way it sounds, does it take to change a light bulb.

None. They live in the dark.

It takes 50,000 light bulb tech's (I think that's the number of forum members now--or close to it).
I guess I'm also one of those light bulb changers--aw, check that, i'm just a flippin' janitor around here replacing urinal deodorant discs (and that's even a nightmare getting said product from the quartermaster)...changing bulbs is above my pay grade as I always change wattage of bulbs, not burned out bulbs, and burn my little fingers because I'm not trained to let said bulb cool before touching it.
But alas, you are correct in your analysis of said forum(s) and it is too bad (even though, as mentioned, that's what these forums are for) that we couldn't reduce the day to day redundancy.
Yours,
LB.

It just pisses me off that I just bought a new light bulb and now there's already a better one available. But to use it, I have to upgrade ALL my sockets! And they've dropped support for 3 way bulbs! Don't they know how many 3 way bulb users there are in the world. This is the beginning of the end for them. If Thomas Edison were still alive, things would be different. THERE was someone who respected the end user........he didn't just invent the thing and expect all of US to beta test it! He knew it worked before he sold it..........If that isn't enough, my neighbor put it new lights on his deck. Now I've got to make my house brighter than his or no one will visit me. I'll lose friends and parties if I don't get my lights louder........er, i mean brighter, than his! ................................................an d another thing......arrrggg........arggggg.........aaaaaaar rrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
