      The light bulb moment is just like in the cartoons when a bulb appears above the character head and turns on. Its magical – I hope you get to experience it. Its that ‘Oh of cause, its so simple, why could I not see it before’. How many light bulb moments have I had, not many, may be half a dozen, but I hope I will have a few more. The most famous one is Archimedes getting out of his bath and shouting Eureka (Greek for I have it). If you don’t know the story Google it.
