Bootleg Lightbulbs Coming to California
 
The California Energy Commission in September 2010 published its 226-
page Appliance Efficiency Regulations, whereby the 100-watt
incandescent light bulb will be outlawed at midnight on December 31,
2010.

Imagine 100-watt incandescent light bulbs as contraband in California
-- persona non gratis -- but illegal immigrants get free tuition --
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 got a bunch of 100w incandescent bulbs stored away. Everyone should
since you can buy them 4 for a dollar.

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.

Unless I am attempting to heat my house in the winter, there are better
alternatives ...

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

The California Appliance Efficiency Regulations also outlaws all
teapots smaller than 0.87 quarts. (Smaller ones are too inefficient.)

Yeah, I remember when you assholes said the same sort of thing about
Ethonal. It was going to be better for the environment, it was going
to make America energy independent. It was going to be great.

Now, we find out that it's more expensive, it's actually MORE
poluting, it's crappy for the engines, and, oh my, it CAUSES MASS
STARVATION!!!!

Now we're being forced to buy light blubs that are toxic, more
expensive, fades artwork, furniture and wall paper, and tend to burn
out at about the same rate as real light bulbs.

Oh, and we're being insulted when we question this insane law.

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

At 5% Ethanol a 20 Gallon Tank of Gas has
19 Gals of Imported Oil and 1 Gal of Domestic
Ethanol : That One Less Gal of Imported Oil
and I am OK with that. IMHO - The USA
should be moving to 85% Gas-A-Hol to reduce
Imported Oil by another 10%. ~ RHF
