Q. How many Code Project users does it take to change a light bulb? A. 1,365 1 to change the light bulb and to post to the Code Project that the light bulb has been changed 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs 5 People to include CListCtrl as an answer. 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs 53 to flame the spell checkers 41 to correct spelling/grammar flames 1 Paul Watson to try and calm the flames 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive 156 to write to Chris about the light bulb discussion and its inappropriateness to Code Project 109 to post that this board is not about light bulbs and to please take this exchange to the programming section 1 David wuff to include some smutty reference 203 to demand that cross posting to code-guru etc about changing light bulbs be stopped 111 to defend the posting to CP saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts *are* relevant to Code Project 306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty 4 People to ask how someone got a :java: in their post. 1 Megan Forbes to include some link to some techy toy she wants. which will be related to taking pictures of light bulbs. 27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs 14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and the post the corrected URL's 4 to be clickty police and insert ^[] (so gonna be nish) 3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to CP which makes light bulbs relevant to this CP 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ 44 to ask what is "FAQ" 33 to link all posts to date, then quote them including all headers and footers and then add "Me too" 19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three" 12 to post to CP that they are unsubscribing because they cannot handle Terry O'Nolley constant wind ups 4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago in the lounge?" 143 to ask "what's code project?" 2 to include CAnalRetentiveWhinersThatBitchAboutPeopleEnteringCListCtrlInPolls as an answer. 4 People to complain that people at CP are to stuck up (even though they have only used it for five minutes) adapted from
Hrmpf! You are WRONG. It's actually 1,366. You got the 1,365 first right but you forgot the person posting a humorous summary of the actions of the others, in this case yourself :)

Hilarious. But you forgot: 57 to suggest a better way to change the lightbulb 5 to write articles on changing lightbulbs 10 to post messages saying one of the articles is an exact copy of something written by Jeff Prosise 1 to give the best lightbulb article a "1" 3 to suggest we need a lightbulb forum 10 to suggest we need separate forums for screw-in and bayonet style lightbulbs 2 to suggest we should should support flashlight globes as well, seeing as mobile technology is such a big thing 1 to suggest we should have one for matches, too. 10 to email me offering their help in changing lightbulbs 5 to post messages on the lounge asking how they can use lightbulbs in their VB applications 1 to start an informal poll about whether the lightbulb should have been changed at all 1 Bill SerGio to say he can change 5000 lightbulbs in ZERO (0!) seconds cheers, Chris Maunder

The rest of us pretending we don't know you when you end up at the same theater as us. My code isn't buggy. Those are all fleatures.

Plus... 26 to argue why it's George W. Bush's fault that the light bulb went out and needed to be changed in the first place. 17 to argue about all the dangers of outsourcing the light bulb industry to India. 32 to argue that politics like this need to go in the Soapbox.
