Yeah, isn't amazing that you heard all the hoopla about the CFL lights and how they're good for the environment, save energy, blah, blah, blah....
What they NEVER, EVER disclosed to the public in these "go-green" ads was that they should not be disposed of like regular bulbs, and that each bulb contains mercury.
I am in the process of replacing all the ones in our house with regular lights.
If I get the chance, I would love to find the A-hole that pushed for this "go green" BS and kick them squarely in the nuggets!

It apparently was just a ploy to make money, plain and simple.
