Crimped or soldered?????

Yes, but should the lightbulb socket be installed with solid wire or
stranded?

That controversy would be good for another hundred postings.

And one to dig up years old posts from other groups and re post them . . .

... 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
1 to move it to the Lighting section
2 to argue then move it to the Electricals section
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 stupid
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.
=============================================== ==

Shamelessly stolen from another Usenet group (who stole it from another,

and

so on...)

Since we seem to have some of these threads running, it seemed on topic

at

the

time. ;-)
