In two years time, incandescent lightbulbs will no longer be sold here. Only Compact Fluorescent and LED bulbs will be allowed. Did anyone think about the little bit of mercury in a compact fluorescent bulb. It's a tiny amount and in one bulb is no big deal. In the amount of bulbs sold today it's not a big deal. In the amount of bulbs sold in two years because it is the only thing you can buy, it might become a big deal. Don't force us to buy something and tell us we can not throw it away in the trash because it is bad for the environment. I promise you, 90% of the population is chucking it in the garbage.

PS. I do use Compact Fluorescent bulbs here. This is one of two incandescents I have left in the house. I take the dead Compact Fluorescents to Home Depot who will dispose of them properly for me for free.
