According to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, the more you know about a particle's exact location, the less you can know about its current behavior - direction, velocity, etc. And vice versa, of course - know its path and speed, and lose track of where it is on that path. So, once a physicist starts turning the lightbulb to remove it, he can no longer be certain of exactly where it is...

Q. How many surrealists does it take to change a lightbulb?

Q. How many Californians does it take to change a lightbulb?

Q. How many Oregonians does it take to change a lightbulb?

A. Ten - one to change the bulb, and nine to fight off all the Californians trying to come and share the experience.

Atheists and goths, I do not intend on offending you. This is all stereotypical humor.

How many Atheists does it take to change a bulb? One, but they still don't see the light.

How many goths does it take to change a lightbulb? None because they would rather stay in the darkness.
