Default Lightbulb smuggling begins in California

"...the 100-watt incandescent light bulb will be outlawed at midnight on
December 31, 2010.

"Smuggling bootleg light bulbs into California would be a piece of cake.
Just stuff them inside bales of marijuana. Or line up eight packs in the
cargo bays of Greyhound buses carrying illegals on the express lane from
Tijuana to any of two dozen sanctuary cities."

To my understanding, the outlawed bulbs will not partake until 2012.

Heard it on DIY channel.

That may be national. It begins in California next week. Their children are
more precious that the rest of the country's.

Maybe it's time for "medicinal incandescents".

Silly me...I almost forgot why I feel the urge to kiss the ground whenever I
visit that state.

And it's comforting to know that virtually all the CFL bulbs will come
from China.

The fruit loop retro Jerry Brown State. Legalize dope, eliminate
hamburgers and french fries...and American made light bulbs that you can
actually see without getting a headache.

So much for stating the obvious.

Why don't you tell us what *doesn't* come from China?

To me, the *plonk...* reminds me of the old man at the public hearing
who stands to make his point, then removes his hearing aid as a sign
that he is not going to hear any rebuttals.

The outlawed "bulbs" are NOT residential bulbs like the 40, 60, 75 & 100
watters used all over. Go look up the information yourself and get the nitty
gritty. This whole thing is an overzealous hoax.

Surf's up, dude! But, with liberals, taxes, San Francisco,
and immorality. Now closer to "Butt's up, dude!"

Banning light bulbs. So the homosexuals can be in the dark?

Tea party babies? Made in the good ol' USA.

Community organizers in Chief? I think his tag says "Made in
Malaysia".

Along with Sylvania and Philips formerly Westinghouse..

Thankfully it is still profitable for Philips and/or Osram/Sylvania to
makle some USA-popular lightbulbs for "USA market", but in Canada or
Mexico,

Canada appears to me to be doing good by having a nationalized
healthcare system, reducing need of employers to "chip in" in
comparison to USA.

Ah yes, the caveman's mantra, it's always comes down to other people's sex
lives. If we could harness the energy wasted as you goofs heat up your
brains worrying about what other people do with their groins we could be
giving away incandescent bulbs on street corners and still have energy to
spare.
