"Eeysore ****ing Tenth Wit "

There is no overall economic or CO2 advantage to be had by making CFL
use
compulsory.

So far, compulsory is only in Australia.

** You are very ignorant.

The EU has announced an impending ban on incandescent lamps in the next
two
years or so.

There is as yet no Directive.


** The ban has been announced and the process has begun.


I've seem some sensible moves towards banning just 'inefficient'
incandescents
i.e standard tungsten filament types.


** Yawn - the cretin only talks about its own demented brain.


It would be crazy to eliminate halogens.


** Many times less efficient that normal lamps in typical home usage.

The proposed MEPS will knock them out for sure.
