Default Lowes Paint Counter vs. A Real Paint Store

"dpb"

In a similar vein, the local TV news obligatory blurb from the CR "lab"
test a couple of nights ago was on CF bulbs. A very carefully staged clip
showed the "trained professional engineer" in his white lab coat and
carrying the clipboard "testing" these bulbs by turning the lamp switch on
and off in succession going down the lineup...

Oh, and it ended w/ the technical feat of unscrewing a bulb and carefully
replacing it w/ another while wearing cotton gloves...


Changing a light bulb is too dangerous for the average person, and anyone
attempting to do such an activity is, by definition, irresponsible. Call a
professional when you need a job like this done, and call the police to
report anyone attempting to circumvent light bulb changing laws.
