spelling.
Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please
take this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum. Eleven to
defend the posting to the group saying that we all use light bulbs and
therefore the posts are relevant to this group. Thirty six 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. Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of
different light bulbs. Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly
and then post the corrected URL.
Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to
this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group. Thirteen to
link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers
and signatures, and add « Me too » Five to post to the group that they will
no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy.
Four to say « didn't we go through this already a short time ago? »
Thirteen to say « do a Google search on light bulbs before posting
