CFLs will always be ugly and I'm not convinced that LEDs will be any

lifetime supply of incandescents.

Why? What is it about CFLs that make you believe they will always be
ugly?

The nature of the beast.

The CFLs mounted inside of A-line bulbs (GE) look just like standard
bulbs -- if looks are important; but I don't see why it matters if the CFL
bulb is behind a shade or hidden in a fixture anyway.
