I agree.
EVERY florescent bulb, including the ones we have been using since I was in grade school 60 years ago, have mercury in them. It is a basic component needed to get the amount of light out of them in an efficient manner. Old fever thermometers and home HVAC systems have much more mercury than the CFLs, and we have been using them for YEARS without all this hysteria!
Our policy is being established by mental midgets!
Look at all the cities and states which have banned mercury thermometers. They’re the same ones pushing the CFL.
