[vcf-midatlantic] OT - incandescent bulbs

[Matt Reynolds]

They are great for making/populating dim-bulb testers for anyone working on
vintage electronics.  The bigger the equipment the higher the wattage of
bulb you need.

Probably not as useful for solid state gear, but for "hollow state" gear
they are a go-to troubleshooting aid.
