*How many subscribers to a web email list<br>
does it take to change a light bulb? *<br>
<br>
*ANSWER:*<br>
<br>
* 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light<br>
bulb has been changed.<br>
* 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs<br>
and how the light bulb could have been changed<br>
differently.<br>
* 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.<br>
* 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about<br>
changing light bulbs.<br>
* 41 to correct the spelling/grammar flames.<br>
* 6 to argue over whether it's 'lightbulb' or 'light<br>
bulb.'<br>
* Another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive.<br>
* 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the<br>
proper term is 'lamp.'<br>
* 27 to post URLs where one can see examples of different<br>
light bulbs.<br>
* 12 to post to the group that they will no longer post<br>
because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy.<br>
* 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ.<br>
* 44 to ask, 'What is an FAQ?'<br>
* 2 to post reasons why the light bulb burning out is the<br>
result of a government conspiracy.<br>
* 4 to say, 'Didn't we go through this already a short<br>
time ago?'<br>
* 43 to say, 'Do a Google search on light bulbs.'<br>
* 1 lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from<br>
now and start it all over again.<br>
