Oh, I'll be mailing them to Democratic Congressional offices.

99.99999% of CFL bulbs will not be disposed of properly, whatever that means.

Don't pretend you care about the environment, you don't even care that people's homes where chidren live will be contaminated with mercury.

Al, why are you ignoring this part of Brumar's post?

> You break a bulb in your kids bedroom, thats where the mercury is concentrated, not dispersed in the atmosphere.

I'm all for using CFL bulbs, but the concern over mercury poisoning cannot be ignored. Unless of course "it's all about ideology ..."
