New approach offers more pleasant light of traditional bulbs without the energy guilt... Traditionally, incandescent light bulbs provide more pleasant light, however they lack the efficiency of fluorescent designs. The new bulb offers the brightness and color of a 100 watt incandescent bulb while using less than 60 watts.
My energy guilt level was already pretty low. Those having trouble with this, just think of Al Gore's mansion and his SUVs.

...an ultra-fast, ultra-powerful laser... pulse lasts a mere femtosecond, and delivers as much power as the entire grid of North America into a needle point size spot.
Huh?
