We like to talk about flashlights.
We can't agree if the highest mode should be limited to long runtime and low heat generation, or if the highest mode should allow for a brief blaze of light with high heat generation.
We can't agree if the beam should be long and narrow, or wide and short.
We can't agree if the flashlight is too big to be called a flashlight if it is yay big, or a bit bigger than yay big, or a lot bigger than yay big or extremely bigger than yay big.
We can't agree if the tint can't be puke green or can't be puke yellow or can't be puke blue.
We can't agree if the switch should be on the side or the rear of the flashlight.
We can't agree if the flashlight should be stock or if it can be a modded light.
We can't agree if a nice flashlight should cost $1 or $5 or $10 or $50 or $100 or $500 or $1000 or $5000.
We can't agree if the flashlight should be made in one locale on earth, or if the flashlight can be made anywhere on earth.
We can't agree if the light source should be incan or LED or HID or LEP.
We can't agree if the battery should be alkaline or lithium ion, or if Li-ion, should be protected or unprotected.
We can't agree if the user interface should be simple or complex.
Non-flashoholics know that flashoholics are people who like to argue about flashlights. We will never agree with each other about flashlights. How are we ever going to agree on politics and religion and the state of the human condition, which are issues that we are at extreme poles apart and are super passionate about? Let's keep the peace here as much as we can.
Mike, I hope you stay in our flashlight group.
