I can't beleive Favre is doing so good. After last season, I was like "Dude, put yourself out of your own misery and retire already!" Boy was I wrong. Now he'sgonna set some records it'll take Brady and P Manning a while to beat!

LOL .... this thread is awesome?!? A perfect example of what happens on HAF when the title is meaningless!!!! As far as the CFL's go, on average they put out 4 times the light for the wattage, so a 26W CFL will be a bit brighter than a 100W incandescant, but it will be a colder (bluer) light spectrum. I'm not sure if there are dimmable CFL's, but dimmable flourescant tubes are starting to gain popularity. Dimming any lights that don't need to be at full power is another great way to save energy. For incandescants it's as simple as installing a dimmer switch. For flourescants, it's a bit trickier.

That's true, CFL's do put out a very white light usually .... I'm saying that it is a bluer light as compared to the yellow incandescant that it is replacing. There are more and more color corrected bulbs on the market, similar to my high beam bulbs that are 4100K with a blue coating to result in a 5000k output.
A favorite of mine is the Lutron Icetron. It uses electromagnets in place of the metal contacts on the end of normal tubes. It is a square-shaped, continuous tube and it will last for 12 years lit continuously! The main principle behind this is that the electrodes cause failure via oxidation.

(Notice the video camera pointed at the bulb. I wonder, which do you think will live longer - the bulb or the camera?)
And wouldn't it be quite remarkable if, when the bulb finally does give up its ancient ghost, modern-day bulb "experts" are able to "discover" the secret to immortal bulbs - a "secret" that was at one timewell-understood bypeoplewhoare likelynow pushing up daisies?(Or maybe they just lucked out with this particularbulb.)
106years in service, 4 watts and no mercury?That's mind-boggling.
Maybe for the sake of the future of the planet, the bulb should be taken out of serviceimmediatelyand very carefullydismantled, so that modern-day scientists canreplicate this treasure.
Do you think that's a good idea? (Whoever does it will definitely have only one kick at the cat, sothey'dbetter notfock it up, right? Maybesuch anvitally importantjob should be performed by areputable Government agency -you know,the DOE, NRC, CIA, or, better still, NASA. If they're not up to the task, I'm sure that Halliburton would be willing togive it a shot.....for a price.)
