Default The end of incandescent bulbs?

I heard that all incandescent bulbs will quit being
produced and illegal to sell in 2013. Is that true?


No. Only 100W bulbs. Lower-wattage conventional bulbs will be
gradually phased out.

Decorative and special-purpose bulbs (such as those used to light
ovens and refrigerators) will be around for a long time.

What about entertainment bulbs, like
Par 64s and 56s, and aircraft landing lights...???
