The green tax code

I expect that all they will do is to tax incandescent bulbs off the
market.
As I saw low energy bulbs this week at 99 p each, this will be easy.

Even though I consider myself to be fairly eco-friendly, I absolutely
hate these useless CFLs. The specs say that they are equivalent to
100W incandescents but I think they are dismal and completely
inadequate.

Thy are if you don't give them five minutes to warm up, for those five
minutes it's like being in a cave.
