who wants to put a mercury laden light bulb into their oven? Are appliance light bulbs with mercury heat resistant to 500 degrees farenheit? Will the mercury need to be professionally cleaned up when the bulb implodes due to excessive heat?

Anyone know where Congress has been getting their pot lately?
Seems to be some pretty wicked stuff.
