So some 90% of a normal light bulb’s energy is converted to heat and only 10% to light.

Is that a problem during cold days, when your home is needing to be heated anyway? Seems like a great use of energy: You get light, and — bonus — you get heat as well!

Thought about that one before too.

Al Gore is a (former?) slumlord. You don’t need heat.
