    Some asshat thinks I was Trolling Phillips I guess.

  5. I had regular Florescent light bulbs (straight kind) in my garage, always on, for at least 5 years, 24/7...same tubes. If I recall the ballast actually failed and I just got new tubes when I got the new fixture.

    I put one of these spiral CFL bulb in my front porch light....left it on 24/7. Dead within the month.

    I believe it was a Phillips.

    I think you'll find that most conservative pundits/hosts/whatever, when they take questions after a speaking engagement, will ask those who disagree to go to the front of the line.

    Rush welcomes Liberal callers.

    Fox almost always, if not always, has a representative of the Left included in discussions.

    Sunday nights there is a radio show called Beyond the Beltway hosted by a guy named Bruce Dumont.

    It has a reasonably wide market I think on AM radio. He usually has an evenly matched panel of self professed liberals and conservatives of various stripes.

    Last Sunday he had a young woman on who worked for Democrats causes in one form or another and made a crazy statement...

    She had not heard of Northam's comments regarding infanticide, which pretty much blew up the internet for a few days until he went all black face.

    The reason she hadn't heard it, and didn't believe it (she stated such on the show) was that it wasn't on NPR, PBS, and a short list of far left sites she frequented.

    Perfect example of what you mention.

    And I should mention, only one side has stopped talking. The side that dismisses anyone who disagrees with them as racists.

    2. a rhetorical device meant to imply racism where no evidence of racism can be found.
