One to wonder whether or not it was predestined that the lightbulb would be changed.
Ten to come in with their arguments about free will vs. determinism, and whether or not it would have been physically possible for the lightbulb to have not been changed.
One to tell the wonderer to get on with life and not go 'round and 'round about pointless philosophical questions.
Lightbulbs depend on the free will of the person using them. If I choose to switch a bulb on and off hundreds of times a day I will shorten its life. I am God, as far as lightbulbs are concerned.
Distribution: Debian 5 - Slackware 13.1 - Arch - Some others linuxes/*BSDs through KVM and Xen

back then anyone wanting to mess with lightbulbs should know so much about physics, electricity and stuff, become a full light-bulb hacker... nowadays any newbie can download the latest lightbul-buntu with auto-installation and auto-configuration, and a lot of eye candy
