I think the CF bulbs should cost less than the incandescents. Either lower the CF or jack up the Incandescents.

Why not a tax on the gas hogs that makes the price of a hybrid look more attractive.

Some people would like to have a hybrid but they can't afford the extra cost.

"Where have we heard that before" I don't know Don, where have we heard that before? You know who will certainly not so you must you know who certainly is. So who is going to enforce those ways?

Also you can get 6 packs of 40 watt CFs for less than $10 at Home Depot. They use 9 watts of electricity.

Compact flourescents are a product of technology that will help the environment. I am willing to let that happen, Does Don have a different plan for us to follow?

The next technological step forward is Cold Cathode bulbs which are more efficient than CFs. Beyond that are LED bulbs. Is it OK if we just sit back and let these things happen Don?
