 They use the term "lightbulb" in some places and "light bulb" in others. They should have picked one and used it consistently throughout. (1 down, 26 to go)

Oh, too true, except for this forum!

I stand corrected, this forum too!

I've GOT to post this at AVS.

i like that google asks, "Did you mean: "light bulb" or "light bulb"? "
i'm not sure exactly...haha i like that someone tried to skirt the patent by Edison by creating a non-heavy bulb and called it a "light bulb".. .....and 56 to post "RTFM" and 200 more to explain what that means... followed by 50 more to ask where's the link?

which brings up another thought, if we actually did have a manual, would we start seeing "RTFM" here too?
[i highly doubt it actually]

"Since there are now 8 (well 9 now) posts in this thread, I'm assuming that it is now accepted as a legitimate thread of interest to the members of this forum. In which case, James Bowman Lindsay (from my neck of the woods) demonstrated the continuous incandescent lamp about 40 years before Edison registered his patent, but then he lost interest. |
