lower quality, and highly hazardous product.

Total BS. Again I am not an environmentalist and not a lefty. I am a construction engineer who evaluates products. We have been switching to lower mercury CFL's and fluorescents for their lower energy usage more than the mercury.

Why do some extreme right sights worry about the lower amounts of mercury in CFL's when they never before worried about the mecury in fluorescent lamps?

The reason is they want to fight the incandescent ban. Which I support.

But fighting it with lies will not work. The bulk is bought by the construction industries which I am a part of. We base our decisions on specifications, not right or left wing propaganda.
