They are much cheaper, yeah, and last longer than incandescent bulbs, but the light they cast can be bad for people who are photosensitive (like me). I know because my workplace has so many fluorescent panels and I get migraines all the time.

It is so bright in offices these days, I guess to keep people from falling asleep, but all it does is give me headaches. In my home, I have incandescent bulbs in the bathroom and DIY LED bulbs everywhere else, which I can use a diffuse type of different colors to have illumination that does not cause me pain.

Why don't people want to buy CFLs? They're cheaper to own overall and the new ones emit a pretty natural-looking light, at least in my opinion

If Meredith Vieira was to read this article, I am not sure she would even understand it. Matt on the other hand is just playing along, making his millions.
No one on that show understands global warming, they just read their note cards.

I am participating in "Green Week" by not watching NBC.
See? I'm saving electricity!

P.S. I believe that in five years, we will look back and say "CF light bulbs? What were they thinking?" and everyone will be using LEDs.
