Oh don't get me wrong. That wasn't criticism, it was praise, admiration and perhaps a bit of envy.

I agree.... We don't smell bad.... But just maybe it is because we got used to that boaty smell of sometimes limited ventilation and mystery spills in hard to reach spaces as OUR SMELL!

I still think the sign is something to be proud of )

Easy now. Shedding light on folks' faults will cause them to bury their heads further.
Besides you all are changing them wrong. My way is the only correct way. I only allow the locals with the proper work permits do it.

You also left out the guy who is smart enough to pull up websters unabridged dictionary of the english language on the web and get the correct answer:

lightbulb

noun
electric lamp consisting of a transparent or translucent glass housing containing a wire filament (usually tungsten) that emits light when heated by electricity [syn: light bulb]

Which informs us that either version is acceptable

Said nerd will further include a link to Wikipedia, for a detailed discussion of the phenomena

Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

yet note that the wiki page has a link to lightbulb jokes (not light bulb), thereby clouding the issue somewhat:

Lightbulb joke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Since lightbulb jokes invariably are derogatory to some social, ethnic, or sex (how many XXX does it take to change a lightbulb?
3, one to hold the bulb and two to turn the ladder, although with public employees the answer is 5,
One to hold the bulb
two to turn the ladder
one to supervise
one to lean on the shovel)

2,390 lawyers are also needed to ensure that no stereotyping takes place and all have an equal opportunity to change light bulbs regardless of their race, creed, sexual orientation (or lack thereof), religion or national origin.

did I leave anyone out?

By the way - the aforementioned moderator will be one busy beaver..............

Why did the Moderator cross the road?
