How many?
I suspect you might be being deliberately provocative here Dave?, but yeah I'll have a go.
1 provocative member to suggest that the light bulb needs changing.
3 members with good intentioned and helpful suggestions.
2 members to suggest that "Saloon" isn't the best place to ask questions about light bulbs, in fact the 600 members probably know more about that kind of domestic stuff.
1 member who recalls how to replace wicks in a whale oil lamp.
5 members from Aussie & NZ who see this as yet another opportunity to mercilessly take the p1ss out of, what in the start, was a perfectly reasonable question.
1 Scandinavian to update us on weather/poetry.
3 Mods to try and keep us all on track.
1 OP to confirm that the problem wasn't actually the bulb, he had merely forgotten to turn it on.

Today da vind it is blowing and da cold it is not so hot.
If it is poetry you vish for, vell here some original poetry is:
It vas falling night,
Ven out vent da light.
"Uff da", said OIe and Sven,
"Da light it is out again."
Trouble it vas for sure.
Da road vas yust a blur
So dey stopped until dawn.
When da light, it came back on.
I wish to add a note: under the rules of Political Correctness any member of a group is allowed to jest about the group. I claim the right to tell Sven and Ole jokes as we can trace my father's parents lines back to the first Norwegians. Well. back to the fifteen hundreds, anyway.
On my mother's side I claim the right to tell jokes about anyone in the world.
