Default CFL bulbs

My original question regarding dimmer switches and regular CFL bulbs brought
two concerns.
First response indicated that the bulbs were fine at max brightness. Next
it was suggested I need to replace all dimmers with switches . Also was told
that using regular CFL bulbs with dimmer could be a hazard.
I don't want to replace the dimmers if I can help it ,might not like CFL
later. I was also told the dimmer switches use watts and the advantage of
CFLs would be lost. I can,t believe the dimmers can use more than 1 watt at
best.
Help please. I went into this question with a problem and ended really
screwed up
Happy Thanksgiving to you all .
and oh ya all you visitors from overseas and Canada happy bargain shopping
in The USA
