How many Scouter Forum Members does it take to change a light bulb?

[Eamonn 61]

And a English guy who wants to know if the bulb is in his torch?

Ea.

[John-in-KC 311]

and a Polack to point out that as Council policy, Cub Resident Family Camp does not permit flame based lanterns in the Campsite

[tcherven 10]

and tents.

 

You can't forget tents.

 

BSA regulations require that all tents be marked with "No Flames in Tents".

 

And don't forget the 53 who tell everyone to switch to the new compact flourescents because the use less energy.

 

Which will cause another 27 to chime in that the compact bulbs contain hazardous materials and can't be thrown in the trash, so the energy being saved is negated by the necessity of hazardous waste disposal.

3 Nigerians will post tryin to get prople to send them money orders for lightbulbs hidden away by the widow of some ambasader.

11 New menbers will use the thread to advertise lifestyle drugs they have for sale.

2 knuckelheads will post links that take you to pronn sites.

7 members will state they are leaving and will never come back.

15 will complain when others are banned for breaking forum rules.

and one guy's reply nobody else can figure out what he ment.

Eamonn changing the light bulb in your torch (flashlight for those of you from Rio Linda) is always acceptable as it demonstrates how prepared you are, unless of course it is one of those annoying ones with the two wires soldering required. Make sure to have spare batteries if you have a spare bulb. How about changing the wick in a kerosene lantern since we are all adults and able to handle liquid fuels.

[packsaddle 753]

Did anyone mention that with the new LED lights, changing a bulb may never happen again?

 

Anyway, who said OGE doesn't have a sense of humor?

Fie upon thee!

 

[troutmaster 10]

So, whose "idea" was this thread? Bet it just sort of "popped up" while musing about how to respond to some of the other less important threads.

[Aquila calva 10]

How many Scouter psychologists does it take to change a light bulb?

 

None...........

 

But it really has to WANT to change.

 

(OK, so its an old joke!.)

[scoutldr 726]

At least two. There is no one-on-one contact allowed between adults and light bulbs.

[John-in-KC 311]

But 4 if you are in Venturing, and the gender mix has to provide 2-deep for both genders...

[Gonzo1 10]

Only one, if the forum member is a chiropractor. But then he'll have you go back over and over again, until it's perfectly aligned.

[local1400 10]

Ay Gonzo, there's the "rub".

[evmori 11]

And does "No Flames in Tents" include people or just fire?

1 to say "Save the world. Work by moonlight."

[Gunny2862 11]

And 5 or more former military Scouters to point out that you don''t really need the light bulb if you''ll just allow your eyes to acclimate to the darkness... after all, they''ve done it that way for years.

 

And 3 Scouters to shout against the militarization of Scouting by such methods.

 

A 4 historian Scouters to bring up that B-P would have done it by acclimating to the darkness.

 

2 other historian Scouters to reply that B-P didn''t really mean that, if he ever said it at all.
