I always wondered why ancient cities had to be dug out of the ground. Why shouldn't they be above ground the way they were a couple of thousand years ago? This explains it nicely. |

Direct (Screw-In) Halogen Bulbs should be as RF Quiet as the older 'standard' Incandescent Bulbs. Some Halogen Desk Lighting Systems use a Transformer Yes mine are in a fixture and I would imagine there's some kind of transformer in there. A ''halogen'' bulb is simply an incandescent with gas, rather than a vacuum, inside the bulb. It still uses 90% of the energy going into it to produce heat, rather than visible light. $8 a bulb is way too high for a CF. Try the 5-packs at Home Depot. It definetily kicks out the heat, especially when its cranked up to 300W. Would come in handy in the winter. Remember the halogen floor lamps that started fires? If a curtain happened to get draped across the top, the bulb was SO hot that it would ignite the curtain. After that, I was VERY cautious about using halogen lamps. I recently put a halogen fixture in my bathroom, but only because all the other fixtures at Home Depot used incandescents. If the SunLight Bulb is truly superior, then $8 is a reasonable price. If it becomes popular, then we will see lower prices. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

Something about the electronic circuit in them flourescent light bulbs,I
guess.My lamp I use is a very old metal floor lamp with a gooseneck on it,I bought the lamp at a Goodwill store many years ago.It sits between my end of doggys couch between the end of the back of the couch and my computer which sits on an end table by my end of the couch.I am not going to change the arrangement either just for a stupid screw in flourescent light bulb.I am very happy with the arrangement just the way it is.Besides,changing old style light bulbs once in a while is something I dont mind doing.To me,it is all part of normal house keeping. cuhulin |

You have a yard? Put a rock or something on top of your yard/grass/dirt
and dont disturb that rock or whatever.If you wait long enough,it will gradually sink on down completly out of sight and other dirt will gradually cover the rock completly over.Dirt is soft stuff and harder/heavier things sink into the dirt or sand. cuhulin |

Those old cities,most of them anyway,weren't built on bedrock,hence,they
sink. cuhulin |
