I was in Lowes today here in Richmond Va and stopped in the lighting section to pick up some conventional bulbs. Said something about stocking up so I won’t have to buy those rediculous curly-cue bulbs later on. When I left three other people in the aisle were muttering disloyal things about the Dark Lord and his minions. I believe this is happening everywhere in Virginia and across the country. Sabato probably doesn’t buy his own lightbulbs so is clueless (and this is just one issue).
I’ve done the same thing, grumbling about CFLs in a store aisle - with the same result! Lather, rinse, repeat.
