It had finally come to the place where no amount of "screwing around" would make things work. and the screwing around had a new feel to it. In fact when he tried to remove the bulb, all he got was the glass part. He was appreciative of the fact that the glass had not shattered in his hand embedding numerous glass shards in his fingers. But the remainder of this now useless bit of low-tech technology still needed to be removed.
Remembering our motto, "Safety First", he made sure the switch was off, and got out the needle nose pliers. This was no time for power tools. It was beginning to get dark, so haste was in order. Unfortunately, haste was not achieved, and the remains were removed bit by bit.
But in the process he discovered much corrosion there in the socket which was removed with a bit of sandpaper. And, with a brand new light bulb installed, everything is good- even better than before.

yikes, I feel like picking shards of glass out of my hand just from looking at the photos.
