Nine who tell the previous seven that everything has already been said in the thread.
Two who say that the previous posters are not above kindergarten level because they just start posting without an idea of what's actually happening.

Fortunately, if it's one of those new eco spiral lightbulbs, it won't need to be replaced for quite a while.

Sorry but now you're the POSTER

I'm typing to the light of my monitor for the most part so I didn't screw it in myself.

...and the lightbulb thread inspires a new thread in the utility cycling forum about the xtrabulb - it's like a regular light bulb but has been lengthened to look more like a fluro tube.
