Time to start saving for a few I suppose.
What? the whale oil ones aren't working out?

Well SKybird we will have to agree to disagree because I would say that the light coming off my energy saving bulbs that I have in my living room or the dinig room is giving off a "warm" light, not harsh at all. In fact I can see a flourescent which is in my kitchen and it is quite harsh and light whilst the energy savers I can see in my living room are warm.....

And yes no one forces me to read the posts however I all too often get the feeling you write things and that you are right and everyone else is wrong...

It's just that he writes an essay about a lightbulb. :-?

Hasn't he ever heard of " 25 words or less " :haha:

To be honest, I agree with Xabba regarding the energy-saving bulbs. Its funny because the wife and I just went through the process. We were trying to find "cooler" bulbs for our bathroom because that's what we've grown accostomed to recently, and two out of the three bulbs burnt out. We ended up having to settle for "warmer" ones when we couldn't handily find adequate replacements.

But, on the other hand, I do agree that the banning of bulbs borders on ludicrous... :yep:

How about concentrating the subject of the thread instead of attacking others? People could say things about your use of larger fonts (?).

They do. :yep: :yawn:


edit: Speaking of attacks. You've attacked about half the regular posters here.

Dudes like you come and go from these sites.:yep:

I'm sure the last site you were on was glad to see you go. :haha:

XabbaRus 09-02-09 02:03 AM
