Hahahaha - nice one Alice.

In my opinion, KICTANET has occasional bouts of this sickness.... but it seems the cold weather has had some effect and minimised the symptoms.

*How many subscribers to a web email list
does it take to change a light bulb? *

*ANSWER:*

  * 1 to change the light bulb and to post 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.
  * 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about
    changing light bulbs.
  * 41 to correct the spelling/grammar flames.
  * 6 to argue over whether it's 'lightbulb' or 'light
    bulb.'
  * Another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive.
  * 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the
    proper term is 'lamp.'
  * 27 to post URLs where one can see examples of different
    light bulbs.
  * 12 to post to the group that they will no longer post
    because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy.
  * 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ.
  * 44 to ask, 'What is an FAQ?'
  * 2 to post reasons why the light bulb burning out is the
    result of a government conspiracy.
  * 4 to say, 'Didn't we go through this already a short
    time ago?'
  * 43 to say, 'Do a Google search on light bulbs.'
  * 1 lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from
    now and start it all over again.
