I'm wondering if there is any alternative to traditional bulbs and
fluorescent bulbs. Unfortunately I am among those who doesn't like the
type of light put out by traditional fluorescent bulbs, and it would sure
be nice to have better energy savings than regular bulbs. Are there any
fluorescents out there that give off better looking light? Or regular
bulbs that are more energy efficient? Just wondering if there are any
other choices.
