I keep trying to use compact flourescent bulbs in the house.
They keep sucking, so I keep going back to standard incandescents.
CFB's (or whatever the proper acronymn is) just don't have the right color, brightness, stability or warmth as incandescents - no matter what marketing keeps saying.

You have to really look at the color temperature of the bulb you are buying...and they vary greatly.
