Well I knew somebody who was in the lightbulb industry, and they trained me in the proper way of changing them. Also, he told me it is LIGHTBULB, not LIGHT BULB. But that's neither here-nor-there. This subforum is NOT for posting lightbulb jokes, please take them to a place for lightbulb discussions.

we all use lightbulbs and therefore it is perfectly OK to post about lightbulbs blakcheez...

I think you forgot:

1 CD member to post a sarcastic comment

6 CD members to take the sarcasm the exact wrong way

12 CD members to explain the sarcasm and original intent

3 CD members to make new threads about the use of sarcasm not only in CD but in society in general

1 more thread from the original sarcastic soul apologizing for his/her rude behavior, and "please stop neg-repping me and my teammates"

6 teammates to explain the originator's behavior is not indicative of the team

12 CD members to accept the apoloby

36 CD members to say they thought it was funny all along and there's no need to apologize

1 CD member to resurrect the thread 9 months from now and start it all over again

This is all wrong. To truly figure out how many it takes you have to know what type of light it is. (Black light, regular, colored, LED, Fluorescent, etc.)

[fabalafae]

And after you figure out what type of light it is...it takes:

1 light sensor/CMU cam

3 prototype arm designs

2 lower frame discussions

1 week of drive train debates

1 KoP

93 phone calls to potential sponsors

6 actual sponsers

4 to 5 weeks of build time

30 programming hours

30 more debugging hours

29 threads on CD posting questions relating to build and updating everyone else on the progress

3 fights over who drives during teleop mode

12 shattered bulbs from the robo arm squeezing too hard

32 unsuccessful tries

I like halogen bulbs. They are much brighter.

Don't forget the one who posts a hyperlink to wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamp_%28electrical_component%29

Speaking of wikipedia. Check out what I found when I looked up robotics on there.

Don't forget all the people saying that the picture is just Computer Generated of Edited and is in no way realistic.

Followed by all the people yelling at them saying that it could be done and the picture is real.

Then all of them getting into a huge argument, and then finally everyone else getting ticked and yelling at them to get back on topic.
