I’m surprised the sanitation union isn’t more concerned for their union workers who pickup this trash.

Why should the Sanitation union workers be worried? If you break a CFL bulb you are supposed to call a HAZMAT team.

Speaking of CFLs... I never found out who won the Grey Cup this year. :/

Last weekend on a local call in radio show a female called said she had a CFL "explode".

She call the poison center at a area hospital asking about the danger. The center said "We don't know but we will check it out and get back to you.

Within a short period of time the poison control center did call the woman back and tell her that she needed a HAZMAT team.

The female caller said the clean up cost was $2,300 for one bulb - one room.

I’m sure a lot of people aren’t aware of that.
