Upton coauthored the bill and now has changed his mind being he wants to chair the Energy Committee. Repeal the bill and deny him the seat.

GE did, GE makes a bunch of them.

So instead of making a light bulb they can sell for 97 cents, they make CFLs which they can sell for $5.99

Just take notice of who has Pro-Communist/Democrat party lawn signs during election season and deposit the spent CFL's in their yard as you drive by. (just joking, Put away the flamethrowers)

Last I looked in my area the nearest location open daily is about a 40 mile (80 mile) round trip to dispose of CFL’s or other fluorescent bulbs. Most of the time I just bag it in it’s own bag an toss in in the regular trash, as I suspect most people do.

Right Here It was part of their on time delivery to store with reduced on hand inventory plan. Fewer bulbs on the shelves at higher prices plus an extra added bonus of appeasements to so called environmentalist. The incandescents disappeared off the shelves there real fast. Now THEY'RE BACK. I'll buy good old reliable efficient incandescents at Lowes from now on. They didn't cave to PC.

I have no problems tossing out those bulb. Have done it dozens of times. Why, do they stick to your hands or jump out of your garbage?

I throw them in the trash.

If environmentalist say it’s good for the environment, then they are good for the environment, no matter where they are. Right?

And if it causes problems, I’ll direct all complaints to all the enviromentalist groups out there.

:-P
