  • Enlightened Lighting

    How long do you think it will be before we're a totally fluorescent lighting society?

      Slow, how did you do that ?
      With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

        Do what? Not think of Light Emitting Diodes?
        That's a question for the ages.

                  Give it a few years. The "warmth" of incandescent will become retro-cool, especially in high-end designer home decor.

                    It's already retro-cool in my home. I won't make the change.

                      Every light buld that goes out in my house I replace with those long lasting high effeciency twisted fluorescent bulbs.

                        We switched over a couple years ago. Not a single bulb has burned out yet.

                          I was under the impression that the movement was well-underway in California. Maybe not.

                            I saw an ad for a light-up vibrator that was shaped like Jesus.

                            Now, I can understand the Jesus shape if you're trying to make some sort of religious comment.

                            But WTF would the light be used for? Seriously.

                            Like maybe we're in the dark and it's hard to find your way?

                            Edit: I suppose if there's a Madonna concert this would be a decent change from all those backlit cell phone displays the audience waves...

                              CFLs suck. So do incandescents.



                              LEDs. They last 10 times longer than CFLs (which themselves last 10 times longer than incandescents). They use even less power than CFLs. And they contain zero harmful chemicals (CFLs contain mercury). They also generate virtually zero heat.
