But the compact fluorescent bulbs are not appealing to the eye--one would think that would be a key flaw for a lighting device. Apparently not for the true believers and those who wish to pose as true believers with a relatively cheap but visible means of demonstrating their purity.
So what is a new trend in defiance of the Green ritual of screwing in the twisties? Old-fashioned, bare filament bulbs that use even more electricity than the damned incandescent bulbs the twisties were to replace:
They are not the latest cliques of beautiful people, but something quite old and plain: exposed-filament bulbs, energy-guzzling reproductions of Thomas Alva Edison’s first light bulb. And despite the escalating push to go green and switch to compact fluorescents — or perhaps because of it — their antique glow has spread like a power surge.
I think I now understand the concept of a feedback loop in climate science.
Laugh with me! This is funny.
