Here's to you, Mother Earth

I just installed 2 of these energy saver bulbs in the light fixture/ceiling fan over my bed. (Still one conventional bulb left, but when it finally goes out, it will be replaced with one of these, too.)

They're made by GE and they fit in my bedroom fixture the way the spiral energy savers don't. I've been using them in my living room lamps for ages and can confirm what the package says -- they last much longer than regular soft white bulbs. They're not quite as bright as GE's regular soft white 60s, but really, how important is that? Especially when you consider that they last longer (resulting in fewer bulbs in landfills) and use less power (great for conservation) which means they cost less money (good for my wallet).
