@Nyle:

For all the GREENIES out there, let's have a little common sense, ban incandescent light bulbs and force the world to use Mercury filled Fluorescents!?! Now, I for one would rather have more Carbon Dioxide in the air than Mercury in my water.

You clearly are ignoring the many times higher amount of mercury created in the creation of the electricity the bulbs are using. The amount of mercury in a CFL is extremely small compared to the mercury created to power a single incandescent in it's lifetime at a coal-fired power plant.
