You can always seal a CFL bulb in a couple of zip locks as a last resort. Those bulbs last forever! I had one in our laundry room, that burned out last week, for 9 years!! I was impressed.
that is CRAZY! I now have those bulbs in the laundry room as well to replace the 'typical' bulb and those old bulbs always tended to be the first to go, I'd always run down with hands full to pull the switch and have the light burn out, good to know the new one should last a while

speaking of earth day, i miss those old earth t-shirt pamphlets you'd get like a month in advance and buy to wear for earth day, I want one, I saw a bunch of t-shirt table things set up on campus today, but i don't think they are earth day related.
