I don't understand why you are comparing CFLs to incandescents. LEDS are the lights of the future. The cost of the bulbs are returned to the consumer within a year due to significantly reduced electric usage, the bulbs are generally guaranteed for 2 years with a 15 year life expectancy and all of the bulb is recyclable. Huh?

From folks who have tried them, the light is NOT warm or pleasing. That's why they say they won't buy a second one.

As long as the gov't does not force me to use it, it will be good to have the option.

Mercury-free, energy-efficient lighting
RTI International researchers have invented breakthrough lighting technology that is five times more energy efficient than incandescent bulbs and does not contain mercury, making it more eco-friendly than CFLs. Best yet, the lighting gives off a warmer, more aesthetic light than CFLs. Once the bulbs hit the market, consumers will have no good excuse left to use traditional incandescents.
