Q: How many Internetters does it take to change a light bulb? A: 435,235
      1 to change the bulb
      4 to tell him he should have done it differently
    365 to point out spelling and grammar errors in first 5 posts
  1,834 to flame the spelling/grammar checkers
  4,598 to correct spelling in spelling flames
  6,785 to say please move to alt.spelling.lite.bulb
 15,467 to say stop cross posting to soc.women and
        alt.rape.all.men.are.scum, alt.adoption, and s.a.a.(m)
 23,456 to endlessly debate which method is superior
236,789 to concatenate all articles to date, then quote
        them, only to say, "Me Too"
106,345 to quote the "Me Toos" to say, "Me Three"
      1 to propose new alt.change.lite.bulb newsgroup
 89,345 to say this is just what alt.physic.cold_fusion
        was meant for, leave it here
 10,584 votes for alt.lite.bulb

And, of course, there are also the dozen or so to spam both
lists saying
 "Make $10,000 selling lightbulbs...."
