There was an article in the paper about CFL lamps ( those twisty energy

I have the things all over the house and didn't even realize the danger.
Best learn how to deocontaminate the place before it happens...and don't call
any gubmint agencies if you break one. THey will simply force you to engage the
services of the certified folks who come in moon suits and not only remove the
mercury, but also a significant part of your income.
Wonder when the anti-CFL lobby will pass a law making the manufacturers of those
devices liable for the damage?
