How much one of these light bulbs cost? About $4 or $5? Well, what if you break one? Then how much does one cost?
....Brandy Bridges broke one, and it cost her $2,004.28. It's OK, saving the planet makes it worth it!

Funny you should bring this up, I was going to buy some of those yesterday when it occured to me that they contain mercury, which you aren't supposed to throw away with regular trash. Honestly, I don't know how you are supposed to dispose of it, so I didn't buy them.

Why do the actions of the insurance company not surprise me?

It is now obvious that the wacko environmentalists never considered the real ramifications of their religion on average people...

I've got a great idea what we could do with all the mercury.... I'll cook up something for my students to eat

Actualy, some scientists think the current 'stable' climate is just a freak of nature, and ever glacial period it used to be very very hefty.

Regarding climatology, the study thereof is still evolving.
