Barely 15 years after the government started banning incandescent light bulbs in favor of compact fluorescent bulbs – to save the planet - CFL bulbs are now being banned because they are toxic and damaging to the environment.

Huh. Who knew.

Also, who could have ever predicted that the environmental activists promoting those little mercury bombs might someday reverse course?

I have 400+ incandescent bulbs stored in the basement out of the original 500 I bought before they implemented the ban.

Lifetime supply and then some. Wonder if you have a side income just sitting there?

I sincerely hope you do.

My wife is all in for chickens. We're planning a move soon and hopefully will start such endeavors after.
