You forgot:

1 lister to weigh the lightbulb;
256 to argue that it weighs to much;
32 to argue that it's worth the weight;
2 to suggest a lighter alternative to the lightbulb;
36 to say the lighter alternative is too expensive;
3 to pipe up (again) about technology on the trail;
1 (naive lister) to go off on a technology tangent about cell phones;
35 to fuel the cell phone/technology war (again);
Jim Owen to say "hike your own hike";
456 listers to agree with Jim;
Charlie to tell us how to dispose of the lightbulb (that was too heavy in
the first place) when we're done with it.
