Available on the black market in 5 years:

- normal flow shower heads
- incandescent lights
- linear PSUs
- CDs

Penny-wise and pound-foolish regarding the linear PSUs.  Ever seen how
many lights remain on at all times in government offices?  Turn those
off first before banning linear PSUs.

The world is going nuts over this stuff and focusing on the small and
useless things rather than tackling the big things.  There's also a lot
of FUD out there.  Though compact fluorescent bulbs save power,
disposing of them will put tonnes of mercury into landfills.  No one
talks about that, not even Greenpeace.  If it ever became a problem I'm
sure they'd advocate LED lightbulbs, currently priced at $40 each - but
their stance is that everyone is rich and can afford to do this.
