And the (x) number of members who want to post that they remember a slightly different version from a thread posted way-back-when but can't exactly recall the details nor does the search feature help in locating the original post but BY GUM it was out there and yada yada yada...

I dunno exactly, but my brother's girlfriend's father's boss's secretary's sister's next-door neighbors' priest's cousin's union shop steward's uncle's Knights Of Columbus club Sergeant-of-Arms's nephew's best friend did it real cheap for me once.

If the light bulb isn't replaced by an Authorized Dealer / Servicer, the warranty will be null and void.

You missed the 4 old pharts who post that back when things were made of wood and only cost a penny light bulbs didn't need changing..... they then move onto discussing the merits of assorted lamp oils......
