Thanks bigheadfred.

‘I’ve been using CFL bulbs for over ten years now. The little old house here has those post-wwii globe fixtures, screws to open ‘em, and I got tired of the incandescents (including 130 volt, oven, and fan bulbs) burning out all the time.

I’ve never replaced any of the CFLs.

I’ve never had them burn the house down, blow up, break, make any noises, anything.

I’m sure that the psychics around here are ready to tell me how I’m *going* to have all those problems, just like psychics of a different rant have told me that it’s only a matter of time before I’m victimized by police brutality.

I’ve been using CFL bulbs for over ten years, now I don’t have to leave the comfort and safety of my computer chair.

And as far as police brutality experiences go, turn on your ESP. Use your CFT (Canya Feel This) bulb. I’ll share.

Got an eye on you.

I love CFLs. I once got some for free. The next best price I paid was 17 cents a bulb for about 2 dozen bulbs. I watch for sales and I’ve never paid more than 45 cents a bulb.

I’ve replaced some, but they lasted years and years of continual use. I like the low electric bill, coupled to the low prices paid initially my savings are enormous. The ones I got for free gave me an infinite return. ;-]

I also can help you with the police brutality thing. FReepmail me your home address.
