Desk Lamp Mercury
I got a new desk lamp from Staples and it has a warning about mercury. THe
fluorescent bulb that came with it has the same warning. Am I right in assuming th emercury refered to the SBCFL? THe switch rotates on the same axis as the buld screws in, so given the gooseneck, I have no reason to believe the switch works with mercury (ie, gravity). Am I right? - = - Vasos Panagiotopoulos, Columbia'81+, Reagan, Mozart, Pindus, BioStrategist http://www.panix.com/~vjp2/vasos.htm ---{Nothing herein constitutes advice.
