One to point out that the property owner should change it.
One to say the government should not.
One to claim government created the darkness in the first place.
One to argue Russell should not have switched on the light because he should have expected the bulb to burn out.
One to point out that only a minarchy can sustain light.
One to point out only anarchy can.
One to point out that competition on the light market would have prevented the problem.
...

What other libertarians would be needed?

LOL!  At least we can still laugh at ourselves, eh?  :)

Two to debate on whether changing the lightbulb is initiating force against said bulb.

One to realize some things are more important than politics and do it himself, because none of the other dimwits would not do anything but argue.

One to wonder whether the light bulb can consent to being changed.   ;)

20 to claim the light bulb would have lasted longer if there was more competition in the marketplace for lightbulbs.
1 to blame greedy capitalists only to discover they're in the wrong room.
3 to claim that they should be the ones to change the lightbulb because the title of libertarianism was usurped from them by American conservatives.
etc...

1 to change the lightbulb while everyone else is planning/debating it on the message board.

The verson I've heard in the past was: "none, the market will take care of it".   ;D

...someone on the survivalist board pointing out that you can just go to bed when the sun goes down.

One to blame the monopolistic electric companies for providing poor product that caused the light bulb to burn out. :blob5:
