[RE-wrenches] CFL lighting and the mercury hazard.

Hi again,

 

Thanks for the helpful input, much appreciated.

 

We have very little coal fired power generation down here so the
incandescent option does not produce so much indirect mercury pollution.

 

It seems the conventional 'linear' flouro has been a far greater hazard, I
remember being in a classroom during an earthquake and they were dropping
from the fittings and smashing around us.

 

Thanks everybody

 

Carl E.
