Default (OT) Why the end of the lightbulb is a dark day for us all



I'm with cuhulin on this one.

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.

Perhaps. But then again denial and
concurrence without questioning
will get you just as far.

You are slowly dying already from the crap in coal and oil smoke.
Mercury on the floor is manageable; extensive air pollution, once out,
is not. You have your poison and I have mine, and I know which one
I'd rather take my chances with.

We should probably stop digging stuff out of the side of the planet.

It requires more pollution over time to operate the old school bulbs.
This includes mercury, radioactive trace elements from coal, and CO2.

Indeed - and instead of being in a compact, eminently manageable form
and amount, it is spread out en mass across the atmosphere and
landscape, affecting all the life on the planet, and unable to to be
controlled or avoided.

Oil pushers make the same goofy arguments about solar panels - too
many toxic elements in a panel. Same retort applies.
