And bulbs turn black on the inside because the filters on the power line
outside your house need changing. Allowing dirty electricity to pass
through.

Sort of like when the filter on your fish tank needs changing.

Obvioulsy, you don't have the foggiest idea of what you're talking
about.
That dark spot is because the light bulb is near the end of its life.
It has sucked up just about all the dark it can, and that dark is now
getting close to the bulb's glass. When the dark fills the bulb,
obviously the light can't work anymore.

Neither of you know anything. A black spot is a pirate's
curse of death. If I were the original poster, I'd throw that
lamp overboard (weighted down with several cats, just
to be safe). And I'd stop that dastardly pirating immediately.

At least *I* provided a cite to back up my post.
Where's yours?

Of course not.
None of my dark suckers are pirated.
When you can provide documented evidence, I'll think about it.
