I agree with everything you said, but as has been noted, CFL have mercury in them. There is a disposal problem that's going to start looking nasty in a couple of years. Most people have no idea about this.
As long as folks handle the disposal of CFLs properly (they won't), this isn't an issue (it is).

Holy Jesus. Of course it's a lawsuit. Nobody can just have a f==king meeting and work it out. Sometimes I hate our system.
