Funny, the folks I know who recommend CFLs seem to be advocating replacing incandescents when they burn out with CFLs, not going around your house yanking still-functioning bulbs and tossing them into the landfill. Must be different Greenies where some of you folks live.
I think being reminded of how we could live our lives better (in any way) makes a lot of people uncomfortable, because they perceive it as criticism or whatever. Me, I like any extra tips I can get. I may not choose to follow all of them, depending on whether or not they make sense, but I like learning about more ways I can reduce my impact on the earth, improve my health, be a better parent, whatever.
