Interesting how our language isn't keeping up with technology. The new compact florescents are anything but bulbous. I tried 3 of those bulbs, When was the last time someone actually "dialed" a phone number?

Oh dear Ish....when we use those "bulbs" we will all have to get glasses (because of the dim light) and further damage the environment because some company will have to use additional resources to manufacture them. Unless of course, the companies are in China or India. They don't have to worry about pollution. The US pollution police don't care that China is making more polution than about any other country on the planet.... Noooooo, the pollution police want the US to go down. You know, "Da*n the torpedos, full speed ahead," sort of thing.
