Dim Bulbs

You know those compact fluorescent light bulbs we’re all supposed to be buying to save what ever company is currently manufac, oops, I mean we’re supposed to be buying to save the planet?  I detest them, but not because they don’t work, as is being reported in this New York Times piece titled Do New Bulbs Save Energy if They Don’t Work?  I detest them because I do not like the light they give off.  I find it obnoxious.  Especially when individuals put them in their outside lighting fixtures, where in the dark of the night they shine quite garishly.

Give me a good old incandescent light bulb, you know, the kind of incandescent bulb Congress is banning, for the children or what not.

Which reminds me. I better stock up on the incandescents, before local stores quit stocking them, because they want to show that they’re onboard with all this nonsense.
