Great, now we'll have to use flourescents exclusively, which contain mercury, and don't work worth a damn in the cold.

I wonder how the heat given off by the human body compares to the heat given off by a light bulb in a typical day? Judging by the sweaty photos of Algore, he gives off an awful lot of heat.....can we get rid of him to and replace him with a tuna sandwich?

Many CF's work fine in the cold. I ran them 24x7 in my old house subzero, never replaced, finally turned them off and took them with me when I moved.
