Imagine 100-watt incandescent light bulbs as contraband in California

amigo de bienvenida.

Smuggling bootleg light bulbs into California would be a piece of
cake. Just stuff them inside bales of marijuana. Or line up eight
packs in the cargo bays of Greyhound buses carrying illegals on the
express lane from Tijuana to any of two dozen sanctuary cities. Hey,
wave 'em on in, there's nothing to check there! Ten-four!

I see no diff in incandescent vs. flourescent. *The latter lasts a lot
longer, too. *Bunch of whining by poor mothe****ers who apparently
can't afford to splurge the extra 2 bones for the better bulb.

Quit whining and go get a job that pays more, losers.

Every one of those "high efficiency" bulbs I have bought have been pieces

crap....sensitive to direction of mounting, and limited life. *There is
no
way that a pile of those crappy bulbs in the trash bin is more efficient
than a single incandescent.

Do you have cite in California law that incandescent bulbs will be sold? I
mean
other than one lone wingnut.

That's nice. Can't you refine it to a single paragraph?

Kiss your 100-watt lightbulb goodbye

By Tracy Seipel

Californians can start saying goodbye to traditional 100-watt
incandescent light bulbs now that the state has become the first in
the country to require a new standard for the screw-base bulbs.

Experts say the new rules, which took effect New Year's Day, will save
residents money and energy. California is already the nation's leader
in energy-efficiency standards.

As of Saturday, what used to be a 100-watt light bulb manufactured and
sold in California will have to use 72 watts or less. The 72-watt
replacement bulb, also called an energy-saving halogen light, will
provide the same amount of light, called lumens, for lower energy cost.

Why do they call California the "Golden State" they're more like the
ban everything State or "The State of total State Control"



I guess it's hard to fit "The Communist Losers Who Ban Everything State"
onto their license plates.

Tell the dead birds in Arkansas about too much regulation.

Tell me, how, exactly, are we going to regulate a bird disease?

Unfortunately, even though ScottyLoon is seldom right about anything,
and in this case is totally insipid, the dead birds are not the result
of any sinister event connected with regulation (as it figures
logically)

The fish kill, and dead birds are isolated to ONE species in
each---making the case that a disease within that lone species (and
probably isolated to one area) is the cause.

Had multiple species been dropping dead, a case for man-caused
disaster might be considered.

Both species cluster. A localized concentrated chemical or radiological
insult must be investigated.

Why do you need a light in your boot leg?

Oh, you're trying to be clever. How....sad.

Free comedy lesson - for a joke to work, it has to make some kind of
sense.
