This was posted on Photo.net, copied from an Australian
list.  

How many discussion group posters does it take to change a
lightbulb? 

1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb
has been changed 

14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and
how the light bulb could have been changed differently 

7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs 

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

5 to flame the spell checkers 

3 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 

19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to
please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum 

11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all
use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this
forum 

36 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 

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

4 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 

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

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

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

13 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.
