CFL

Everyone's going Green -- Right?

I'm not sure if going Green - is the correct term here.  I'm not buying solar panels for the roof, or putting a wind turbine in the back yard.  

I really just want to save a couple of bucks off the Electric Bill.  

Getting rid of your old light bulbs and replacing them with CFL seems to be a "what to do first" for folks. 

Here is a run down of how many light bulbs need replacing.  I  never realized how many light bulbs are in our house. Over 40 bulbs...
