4-packs are on sale now at HD for either $1.39
or $1.59. I don't remember exactly, but they're
cheap. I've got plenty of 75s and 100s to last
for a long time. And I have 40s for hall lights. I
never did use 60s. But if anyone wants 60s, this
is the time to stock up.

Many people mistakenly think incandescent are
illegal to use, because the electric company stuck
them with flourescent bulbs after doing an energy
audit. I get customers who ask if there's a better
solution for their kitchen recessed lights on dimmers
that keep burning out. I explain that fluorescent
are designed for uses where they're neither dimmed
nor turned on and off frequently and that they'd be
better off going back to incandescent. Then they
say, "Oh, I thought those were illegal".
It's amazing how much mis-information can persist
in a society with an allegedly free press.
