Re: NO Ban on Light Bulbs!

Barton's bill to repeal failed. What passed WILL impose the new
bulbs, and had big GOP support, including President Bush.

The standard would not ban incandescent light bulbs altogether, but it
would prevent manufacturers from making less efficient models.
Consumers Union, which publishes Consumer Reports, estimated in March
that consumers would pay about $1.25 extra for a new incandescent bulb
that meets the standard, but make up that cost on electric bills in
about six months, assuming the bulb was used for two hours per day.

What I haven't figured out is if the "new incondescent bulb", is those
curley cue ones, that you REALLY don't want to break, and most
certainly do NOT last 5 years, or something different?
