Great reply Brad. Besides, those who think that trading their incandescent lamps for the fluorescent ones is a winner are simply trading one problem of energy hog to another problem of mercury poisoning of the ecosystem as these lamps are disposed of.
We did the same thing when we as a nation switched paper grocery bags to plastic ones. Paper bags came from a renewable resource and the plastic bags come from petroleum. Go figure.
