How many forum members does it take to change a light bulb?

[Zed]

I think your all a bit dim.

[Sturdee]

but it is better being dim than dumb.

watt did you say ?

[Sturdee]

Ohm, Ohm and Ohm

I had a science teacher - Mr Brown - who, when one of us made a dubious statement, would retort "What, what, what? Three watts, not very bright!" which sounds like a Spike Milligan-ism to me.

Turns out his brother ended up being the "Warren" who draws the cartoons for the Daily Telegraph (Sydney paper for you non-New South Welshmen), which goes to show that wit does run in the family.

runs in some too!:mad:

Look, it's a bit off topic now (might not have have been earlier) but I've just cut down a large light bulb tree. Does anyone know if the timber is any good? Here's a picture of a very young light bulb tree:http://www.enisen.com/images/Light%20bulb%20tree.jpg

Mick dont know if it is the same species as the bulb trees we have planted around our steets they seem to be very tall and straight with only one branch and bulb at the top as for turning etc maybe do a search on Energex.
Hope that sheds some more light on the subject for you.

Does emit dark or light?
Is the natural hue a compromise between the two?
I am only conversant with the natural boquet and SWMBO's tantrums when said element is transferred to carpet via boot.

[JackoH]

In your case Iain, it's Horse !

[Neal]

Iain IMHO i reckon a compromise because of the two types of ie eyes wide open faint hint of a smile 'Wayne your cyclone really sucks' so there is light hearted banter sucking in heaps of light . Then you go to the squinting slit eyed vein popping teeth clenched whisper (then you know the real is about to flow) 'who tramped that horseshit all through the house' , note the eyes again no light is going to get in there , so you mix the two together usually 50/50 and you get your compromise hence the 'natural hue'.

Too true John, factor of six at the moment.
Bonus, more solid than bull and a source of cheap feed for Corgi who thinks it's delicious (just watch out for the face lick that follows).

Further research has revealed that the light sucker theory is in fact codependant upon a planetary rotation/rhytmic factorization previously uncalculated, as it was unpostulated and unsuspected. In reality, light suckers are actually bihabitual suckers/emitters, and in fact spend a large portion of their existence emitting darkness, as well as sucking. It has to do with two primary factors, one in correlation to an energy input/output factorization, the second, hold on to your hats folks, a global positioning factor, i.e. North/South positioning in regard to the Equator. The latter is much like the flow of water down a drain, being counter to the flow of the water on the opposite side of the equator. The reality of bulbs emitting darkness was, I believe, hinted at by Schroedinger, under the guise of his well known "cat in the box" trick. Had he really had the courage to present his real hypothesis, just think of what we could have accomplished by now. Even Einstein, in his theory of relativity, took the easy way out and said that photons are affected by gravity, but we now know that really they are just pushed around by darkness.

I highly reccomend anyone attempting to change a lightbulb be certain to wear proper safety gear, as reading this forum has presented the reality that such an operation can really suck, and may even suck the dark sh.. right out of anyone not properly prepared.

so, nothing to illuminate your interest for you lot to comment on on other parts of the board huh ???? huh ?
