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

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

This is too funny - did you make that up? It certainly can be seen as the dynamic of a board.
