You forgot the people who read the post, but don't respond

because "they don't want to get involved" in the light bulb

controversy.

 

125 lurkers who read the post but just don't feel they are good

enough at light bulb changing to make a comment

[Eazy]

No offence Jay, but you have way too much spare time!

[P_Scott]

Jay,

 

Can we say "deja-vous"? Or is it "vousja-day: the feeling you've never been here before". I, for one, call the electrician to replace my flourescent luminous daylight simulation device.

[cadcam]

Eazy ,I hear you.this actully came from wife. she is a Mod for some spirted kids boards..

 

She emailed it and I thought of you guy & gals big time.

[TheePres]

[Chris Rizzo]

You forgot-

 

"I'm looking for a Post-Processor for a GE 75 Watt Soft-White bulb, anyone willing to share?"

 

and then 150 forum members to tell said person to screw the bulb where-the-sun-don't-shine..

[jrykrl]

+1 rekd, I had to check the date on the post!

[Karl Oram]

Has the light bulb been changed yet???

[Kevin O]

I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT !!!!

(and they said I was a dim bulb)

[A-ron1286490684]

-And a few to pat themselves on the back and say what a great job we are doing with the the changing of the light bulb...

 

-and a few to say that since the light bulb is manufactured by GE with ties to big business -that changing the light bulb is simply to line the pockets of Bush/Cheney fat-cats as a quid pro quo and is irresponsible, immoral, and insensitive to a culture that has a right to be in the dark.

 

[Rick McAllister]

Bump

[Storkman]

cmr

 

i have a GE 100 watt post. Will that work?

[mold100]

Who will make the set-up sheet?

[Mike Mattera - TFM]

OK Jay,

 

Now we can see the light is on.....

But is anyone home.

 

 

Mike Mattera

[cadcam]

Wait!! no one said to switch it on.I saw that it was replaced.But i did not see on the travler to turn it on.

Now who did that.

Now I am going to need to have a ECO to change the travler to state when replacing bulb to turn switch on and test.

 

Just when all was going well.

[Glenn Stephens. from CCCS]

Don't forget to write up the SPC report every 3 bulbs (or is it 4?).
