    No big deal, hell nearly every electronic anything in California has a tag on it that warns you it causes cancer. Yeah, I think I'll go eat a power cable.

    Greg and I saw Ed Begley, Jr. speak at the Global Green Expo in NJ last month. He said that the amount of energy CFL bulbs save means that coal power plants will be used less, which means the coal plants will put less mercury into the air...so much less that it'll more than compensate for the small amount contained in the bulbs.

    I didn't explain that well, but you know what I mean.
