Hi,

Got quite a problem here because I'm moving out of my
dorm in 2 days'
time, and I need to change my ceiling light bulb before
then
(otherwise they'll impose some ridiculous penalty charge
on me).

Anyways, here's how my domed ceiling lamp looks like:

As you can see, there are no screws whatsoever. I've
googled quite a
few places, and tried some of the proposed solutions such
as:
1) Twisting the dome (with my hands)
2) Pushing up on the dome, then twisting it, or rocking
it like crazy
while twisting it with maximum strength
3) Pulling it down (although this is not quite possible
since there is
nowhere to hold the dome)

Nothing worked.
I don't have any tools with me, and it'll be hard to find
one at short
notice.

Anyone has any other good ideas?
Thanks so much for looking!

Eric


What did you say your major is ?


Q: How many college pukes does it take to change a light
bulb?


25 to analyze it, and one underpaid tech to execute.
