As a former industry professional and as someone who sat through an entire Theatre 101 class, I can confirm the correct term is "lamp." Now can we take this discussion to the proper forums over at lightbulbchangers.org? Thanks.

Is the community dying? No. Is it changing and returning to its usual at-rest state? Perhaps.

41 to correct spelling/grammar flames.

6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb"...another 6 to condemn those 6 as ....-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.

156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of their "acceptable use policy".

203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and lightbulb group about changing light bulbs be stopped.

111 to defend the posting to this group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts *are* relevant to this group.

14 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.

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

1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again....

I didn't use MechJeb to change the lightbulb.
Post is both hilarious and accurate. :)
Agreed.

See, we're doing it right now! :sealed:

Agreeing with your agreement.
All I did was give some rep instead of posting....oh wait. DOH! :sticktongue:
The lightbulb is too hot and now flips over in the atmosphere!!!

Wait, wrong panic thread...

As an amateur forum lurker I can day that the forum is finally recovering from the post update burst of posting. Thankfully.
Repped it with the comment "Hilarious" and then read the comments that followed. :)

Obviously, I agree with Red Iron Crown, Starwhip, Robotengineer, and Raptor9. :D

Happy landings!

Jeez, guys. This forum is dead. Stop necroing it. :mad:

2.5 Necromoaning

Additionally, methods that draw attention to a necropost in such a manner as to shame the poster are also frowned upon and this is known as Necromoaning, Necromoaning posts are also subject to removal under rule 2.3a.

I don't see anything about necromoaning-moaning, so quit your necromoaning!
