•       If you break a CFL, follow these directions for clean-up:
o       Leave the room
       Remove people and pets from the room and keep them out of the room during the clean-up process.
       Avoid stepping on any broken glass.


Does that mean if it's anything other than a CFL it's alright to step on broken glass?
I'm surprised they didn't remind the householder not to stick their fingers in the now vacant light socket.
