SO, let me see if I can get this right...

Incandescents banned over "waste" heat (not so at this latitude, the need for artificial light is greatest in winter where the days are much shorter, and the heat is welcome as well).

Now, mercury is in abundance so next up will be the CFL bulbs, which contain mercury.

Okay, I get it. They really do want us sitting in the dark and the cold.

I wonder how much comes from the decayed carcasses of salmon who died after the spawning run, and then is carried downstream?

Well, I know salmon (why’s that got that l in it?) swims fast and mercury is called quick silver, but I really don’t think they’re related.
