I hatethe CFLs, also and do not believe for a minute that they are any better for the environment. But even if they were (and I am certified tree hugger) there are trade offs in everything and one of the trade offs for the CFLs is that they don't give out any light. How unreasonable is it to think a light bulb ought to really illuminate? How is this going to work in our ceiling fans, bathroom light fixtures, etc. I haven't had much experience with LED lighting, but that's th direction I'm going instead of flourescent light bulbs. froggyintexas
