[quote user="al-in-chgo"][quote user="Bucyrus"][quote user="wsherrick"] As an aside to this, If we had a free market I wouldn't have to stock up on good old Edison light bulbs because I absolutely HATE those CFL light bulbs and everything they stand for.[/quote]Me too.  I will have to calculate how many incandescent bulbs I will need for the rest of my life and how much space it will take to store them.  I'll bet the incandescent bulbs just sell like crazy as the cutoff point approaches.  I wonder if the ban will ban owning them or re-selling them.   [/quote]Nobody's trying to ram them down your throat, guys.  You'll still be able to get all the indies and specialty bulbs you want for years and years. Neither the big utility companies nor the federal government is putting limits on traditional light bulbs.   I for one am inclined to say that I take a dim view of trying to save energy by sticking with the incandescents (lol).  [/quote]Well that is news to me.  I must have heard 1000 times that congress has banned the incandescent light bulb by 2014.  It is said that they will no longer be on the store shelves.  When you say we will be able to get all the incandescent bulbs we want for years and years, how will we do this when congress has banned them and ordered them removed from store shelves?Regarding what CFLs "stand for," that to me is the most insidious part.  I have no problem with people trying to save energy according to their own will, but CFLs stand for telling other people how to live their lives.  And they are just the tip of the iceberg.  This vision ultimately includes government limits on our use of motor fuel, heating fuel, electricity, water, and waste disposal for starters.   Congress bans incandescent light bulbs:<a href="http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=59298">http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=59298</a>
