Before they start banning bulbs I’d suggest a little experiment for anyone backing a ban.
Go have your eyes dilated.. don’t wear those dorky paper glasses… and walk outside into bright sunlight.
That is exactly how my eyes felt after having been assaulted by those “money saving” “environmentally friendly” light bulbs.
Screw that.. I don’t feel the need to go blind to save money or to save the damned planet.
I am just now getting to the point that my vision is improving after getting rid of those god damned bulbs. I still can’t read a damned book and have to rest my eyes every so often. It is fucking infuriating.
Seeing the news on this subject puts me in a very, very, bad mood.

and to make the Gorelights™ even more fun, they’re jacked with mercury.
When they get thrown away, they’ll light up some landfills, you betcha!

I’m with you, Techie. The things give me awful migraines, and although everyone says I’m insane, I swear I can hear them buzzing. Can’t stand ‘em!
