I hope everybody fully appreciates how much this would-be ban has cost the American public. The idiots in Washington ban incandescent light bulbs, even though millions of people REQUIRE these bulbs. (I happen to have dimmers on most of my light switches. The CF bulbs don't work with dimmers.)Of course, no suppliers buy the bulbs, so then the manufacturing lines are shut down, and then probably dismantled.

Suddenly, two weeks before the ban becomes effective, the WIs (Washington Idiots) "see the light", and end the ban. Except, now there are few bulbs in the stores, and no manufacturing capacity to handle the demand.

The 40-watt equivalent LED I bought yesterday is dimmable.

The market is moving very quickly. Real-time, prices are falling so fast you can see it happen.

All this bureaucratic crap will be moot, faster than many realize.
