Array Me? Oh I'm saying nothing, don't want to get involved. (I realise of course that I am getting involved just by stating that I'm saying nothing, but since it's a little difficult to stand in the corner of this non-existant room and look thoughtful...) -

Array You'd also have:
3 members insisting that classical light bulb changers only used Louis XIV chairs for vertical support
14 members opining that sport light bulb enthusiasts have evolved to more dynamic lifts like folding ladders
4 members pointing out that classical 'bulbers could change with either hand
and Mo demanding that everyone quit assuming that only men can change the bulb in the 1st place! "Sometimes we, as coaches, get into that dictator mode where you just tell and you don't listen and you don't try to understand them." Tom Izzo, Mich. St.

the 2 attached pictures of mike eskin
and the 70 posts protesting talk about mike eskin in a thong and the resulting pictures.
(note that mike won't be in those 70 posts) [/B]
Yeah, strange. I keep chumming the water, just hoping for him to come lunging out of the deep, so I could say: "You're gonna need a bigger thong!" But alas:
By the way, here's another picture of Mike at a R&D meeting of the Mike Eskin Signature Series (tm) brain trust. Note the youngest board member admiring Mike's modelling of the pewter and taupe "Super Absorbent Big Boy Thong" (tm), a unit designed for those who perspire heavily during extreme fencing.

3 to point out that if the lightbulbs were sharp, the standard, palmed method of screwing in the lightbulb would be suicide. Or at least give you a whole in your hand.
1 to point out that the lightbulb is flawed
4 to tell Inq to stop saying that
1 to make a post connecting lightbulbs to television or something
50 to continue the television discussion for the rest of the thread, as the lightbulbs are forgotten
1 or 2 to occaisionally bring lightbulbs back up, responding to the original question -
