Not at all ;-)

5 to argue that using carbide lamps would not require changing any light bulbs

1 who states that fittings don't give value for money - direct soldering is much easier

1 who claims that this could be done more general/systematic/flexible with neon lbd

1 who calls all of the above self-aggrandizing ignorants - they don't even know bajonet-fittings (BF)

3 to say "Me too" to that: BF is the one true way to changing lightbulbs, dammit!

4 who claim lbd is just DC lightbulbs

2 claiming lbd is just AC lightbulbs

3 comparing relative transport-cost formula's for AC and DC

2 to state that other gasses than neon might do

2 to demonstrate some of neon lbd's features in probulb Received on Sat May 06 2006 - 00:29:11 CEST
