>Ira's gotta change that enery-hogging light bulb for one of the greener ones.<
Better to get mercury poisoning?
Interesting article in this week's New Yorker about light pollution.
People use too many, too bright lights.

Ira had me spellbound with a trip report that started with the sentence: "... I am at the Hotel Montmorency in Carcassone, just beneath the outer walls, and am being driven mad by a European keyboqrd (sic)...
BRAVO Ira!
BRAVO Ira!

Ira, I have a CFL in my kitchen that I leave on 24 / 7. Do you think that is okay, or should I turn it off when it will not be needed for several hours? The only time it is off is when we have a hurricane. It burns out about every 5 years.

Hi CB,
>I have a CFL in my kitchen that I leave on 24 / 7. Do you think that is okay, ..<
I think that the question should be addressed to PB.
Hi WT,
>Fun thread...I can just imagine him blushing.
Aw, shucks.

<Ira - since i've never seen your bulbs off i assume they are always on.>
wow either ira re-wrote part of my last post or someone else did - weird - can someone explain that one to me - who put that face figure in - clever! Inside job?
About leaving the bulb on 24-7 and lasting five years - i think you are doing the right thing. And you, unlike some Luddites, are saving the planet!
