These New Light Bulbs

Well it seems that the "big push" is on for
everyone to use the new type CFL (Compact
Fluorescent Lightbulbs).......It is a Global
Warming "thing".......

It appears that a lot of countries want to
reduce the useage of the old incandescent
bulbs by 2012......No one has yet to mention
that the "bulb manufactures" are making
a "fortune" selling these new style bulbs......
They are the "ones" that are pushing the
use of the new bulbs.....There is more profit
it their sale......(Is it a really a Global Warming
thing?).......

Today while shopping in a "big box" store, I
noticed that GE light bulbs had "a lot" of
shelf space in the store......(You want a bulb,
you buy GE.).......The shelf contained both
the new CFLs and incandescents along with
some new type halogen bulbs.......

I sincerely doubt that the incandescent bulb
will every go away.....GE DOES NOT WANT
TO LOSE THE SHELF SPACE.......This is
just a simple sales and marketing decision......

They will try to convince you to buy more
CFLs but not at the expense of losing the
valued shelf space in the " big box" store.....
In fact it is these new CFLs that have GAINED
them additional space......Pumps
