Reading comics with 100 watt light bulbs.... a thing of the past

[sckao]

 

So what are people's monthly electrical bills like?

 

 

[conditionfreak]

Funny, but when I don't make a point of watching how much electricity we use, the bill is about $100 per month. When I make a point to "cut down" and go around turning off lights, the bill is about $120 a month.

 

Go figure.

I believe in freedom of choice. This change reeks of big brother.

Most people are far too stupid to make the proper choices in life. Works for me as those people tend to die off prematurely, leaving more of everything for me. Bwahahaha

You can never go broke underestimating the stupidity of the general public.

When I was 8, I hit my best friend in the temple with one. I think that was the last time his mom let him come over to play.

I have a set of Jarts from the 50'-60s. They are dangerous as all get out. Relatively sharp and quite heavy insuring easy skin penetration.

Seems to me that this sentiment (buying a truckload before they disappear) is the exact thing that would keep this product on the market

It's not market demand that's keeping on the market nor phasing it out. I thought we already covered that?

 

So you think theres going to eventully be a "black market" for light bulbs ?

Yes,and people will probally sell them on Ebay or Craigslist. They will take one oz of gold for them or 1000 pile of 1990s comic book dreck.

Hey, I have parrots also. African Grey Timnehs. I have two proven breeding pairs. But I just have regular 100 what incandescents for them. The cages are by two large windows though, but not in direct sunlight.
