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.

What things? The bulbs or cell phones, or both? FWIW - whenever I use
my cell I use the speaker mode. I feel I know enough to not TX right
on my head. Everytime I see someone using their cell in that matter it
crosses my mind.

And the BT technology, I'm not real familiar with how that works, I
have an idea though. But using anything like that - that someone can
copy what you're saying isn't a good thing IMO and even worse is that
if it's on (though you're not using it) anyone with a lick of common
sense and the correct piece can listen to everything you're doing /
saying / in your vehicle. I suppose many people either don't care or
don't know, it has to be one or the other IMO.

I don't know about you guys, but I like my filament bulbs in the winter.
The lack of efficiency just helps heat the room I am in, so no big deal.
My summer bulbs are CFL's, soon to be LED's when the price comes down to
something a mere mortal can afford.

Replaced an old CRT TV in a back Bedroom with
a new LCD TV and had to add a new Electric
Heater to keep the room warm during the winter.
