How do you want to die? Burn to death from the flaky power supplies used in
those damned CFL bulb *bases?
Or do you prefer the more subtle means of neurological hemorrhages and
clotting by inhaling the VERY TOXIC
gas that will come out when you accidentally drop one on the floor? No it
won't happen right away...it will
take hold years later, probably by the time you start developing lesions and
growths from that cell phone
you've got glued to your ear.

To believe those things are safe is a fool's denial.


Yes, paranoia will get you far.
