After having two CFL bulbs blow up, one over my bed, another over the couch, I ripped them out and tossed them in the trash. At least with the ordinary incandescents I never worried about a shower of glass and toxic dust.

I had two of them catch on fire and run everyone out of the house because the smoke was very painful to our lungs. The ceiling was scorched with the second fire. And I can’t tell that the fool things last any longer than the incandescently.
