When are the rules for disposing of used up CFL’s going to be coming out?

I expect a fee for their disposal because of the toxic mercury they hold.

Also——Who here on FR wants to use such a bulb OVER their cooking areas????

“Specialty” bulbs ought to be around a while yet. It’s probably unwise to use a twisty bulb in an over-the-stove hood, just because they won’t fit where a normal bulb would. A bulb-break accident would mean pitching all uncovered food whether it was twisty or normal bulb.

As a professional in the food business. I'm fine with it.

Why don't you debate whether we need a federal government or not. Because I don't think we do, outside of protecting the borders.

Nope... you are fixated. Made up your mind.

The safest thing is to mail them to the EPA or to Congress. They're the experts.
