Thomas Patrick O'Shaughnessy Definitely a compliment to the National and International campaigns to end Global Warming. California not only has great sunshine, we also have significant geothermal, ie. China Lake near the Upper Kern River, Water flow, and agriculture 6th in the world! California can lead us into the 21st Century with thoughtful leaders as US Senator Barbara, State Senator Fran Pavley and our Lt. Governor John Garamendi who with Secretary of State Debra Bowen are two of our conscientious statewide elected officials.

Nick,
my CFLs do that too, I think its an energy saving option that some brands come with. Did you make sure you got the same brand of CFLs? You'll get used to it.

Alex I think they should just stop (reduce by big % if not completely stop) making regular/old fashion light bulbs? And slowly replacing them with Energy Savers.

I need help buying CFLs. I just got my first 2 free from the City of Burbank last month. 1 is AWESOME, but another starts out dim, then brightens up after about a minute or two.
Is there a source for recommended CFLs? Also, I hear LED's don't have mercury. Where can I get one?
