Hehe, sorry. For some reason it didn't work- but I linked it.

*edit* I realized I failed within 15 seconds and my failure was already pointed out. I am hanging my head in shame.

LAMP is an accronym for Linux, Apache, MySql, PHP software bundle.
Or it could be a lighting fixture which utilizes a light bulb or multiple light bulbs.

Do a google search and you'll see.
How many courses in electronics/electrical engineering have you taken?

For those who aren't getting it...

That experience is irrelevant. If you didn't learn it in school then you didn't learn it. Therefore, you're claim that the 'light bulb' is perfectly correct is wrong. Technically speaking, a light bulb is the enclosure that contains the inert gas and the filament. In fact, 'lamp bulb' would be more appropriate for the name of this enclosure but due to the stupidity of the english language, it is called a 'light bulb'. The entire assembly is a lamp. Oh, and I've taken 4 courses in electrical/electronics and 3 courses in mechatronics.

so did you go to school to learn about the 5th gen camaro? or should we just disregard all of your statements pertaining to it?
