"How does it taste like" doesn't make sense.
Maybe you meant:
"How does it taste?"
OR
"What does it taste like?"
It tastes like deepfried squid, which is what it is.

« on: February 24, 2008, 04:20:27 PM »Exactly. There is no "safe" amount of mercury. Any is dangerous. And regardless of when you clean it up, its still there, harming you and your family. I would not risk it just to save on energy bills.Like I said before, it would be better if they could make them out of a different material that can produce light and is less hazardous.CFLs don't really contain a lot of mercury in them, they contain about the amount that could fit on the tip of a pen. So, the "hazards" of CFLs aren't that hazardous as you guys make it out to be.Quote from: GilI was not aware that a lightbulb could make a person catch fire.I was exaggerating, Gil. Don't act stupid.
That little amount is deadly. It doesn't take any more than that.

I'm thinking we could get rid of the "TBA" posts and just wait till you have all of the information for required post. Cuts down on SPAM...(for the lack of a better word)

« on: February 24, 2008, 01:46:17 PM »I hate it how Congress wants to ban incandescents. I'm not going to the recycling plant just to drop off bulbs. CFL's produce a different shade of light that I don't like. They need to make CFL's out of a different material that will produce light, such as hydrogen or something, and make them produce an identical shade of light that incandescents can produce. Also, do they make transparent florescent bulbs?EXACTLY! Seriously guys, what kind of person is REALLY going to go through all the trouble to recycle them? This is America we're talking about here. Maybe 5% of them will get recycled, at a maximum. You're missing the point about the Mercury. Even if you clean it up immediately and properly, its still SERIOUSLY risking your health. It's one of the most poisonus elements. I asume its just as harmful to pets. Hate to break a lightbulb and wake up the next morning to have your pet dead. Think about it, its real and it can certainly happen. And yet, they want to put MORE of these hazardous bulbs in our homes. Maybe its there way of controling the population, who knows. I for one am never going to own a single CFL. And if that means getting them illegaly, then so be it. I'm not risking my health for something that wont do me any good in the long run.
