anyone with a tf collection, myself included, will want plastic uv shields to cover their cfl light bulbs because our increasingly overbearing and idiotic government has set a deadline, 2014, outlawing the sale of incandescent bulbs. of course cfls also contain bio-hazardous mercury vapor which can cause blindness and can be absorbed through the skin or inhalation resulting in poisoning- don't drop em or throw em out!

see for yourself:

im all for energy efficiency but im also all for, well, living and seeing and small things like that..

cfls are NOT the answer and now that I know their possible effects on my collection im even more angry about this regualtion

im gonna be stockpiling incandescent bulbs myself!

I've heard they're working on an incandescent bulb that's more energy efficient. Yes, CFLs are toxic, but so are batteries, cleaning products, plastic, and several other things in modern life.
