If your exit/escape strategy is to demonize the only tool available to workers capable of forcing "management" to pay attention, I'd suggest coming up with a plan B.

Except we're not talking about specific unions, we're talking about the concept of unions and unionization in general. When you see people complaining about unions today, they're aren't talking about corruption. Corruption exists everywhere -- if unions went away corruption would still exist.

Yes, initial cost is high. But you hit the break-even point after about 3 years (sooner if you have the lights on all the time). Long term, you save a ton of money.

In the process, you get light quality is just as good as an incandescent. They can be dimmed. They don't flicker. They turn on instantly. And they last for 15+ years (longer if you don't mind dimmer light output).

Hang onto your 100W globes for now; LED equivelents for that wattage are probably a year or two away. Take a look next time you have a bulb burn out ...

The one I used in a bathroom fixture lasted 4 months. The other bulb in the same package was put in the utility room, and lasted until I moved out of that house (4+ years). YMMV.

Reading all of the comments, I'm fairly convinced that quality is inconsistent across the board.

Do not put CFLs in areas where the bulb is frequently turned on and off. CFLs are limited more by the number of on-off cycles than the number of hours they run. Their lifetime of CFLs is also dramatically lower if they don't heat up to operating temperature before turning off.

Personally I won't touch CFLs for this reason.

Been experimenting with a set of 12.5w / 60w equiv Phillips Endura LEDs instead. So far I'm pleased with them.

Hostilities is the plural of hostile. Or rather, hostilities is when two sides are fighting each other. One could make the argument that if the other side doesn't (or can't) shoot back that we are just being hostile and are not engaged in hostilities.

WebGL effectively executes code from the web (effectively) in ring0. Silverlight and flash execute code from the web in (effectively) a sandbox.

The woodcarver was also shot in the back. And the DA refused to press charges. The police union also insisted that the shooting was justified and that officer followed proper procedures and training.

I think the number of people killed by police in the Seattle area is similar to the number of murders that have occured in the same time frame...

0.08mSv is a typical dose received from a chest X-ray.
2-6mSv are doses typically received over a year from background radiation
10mSv is the dose received with a CT scan
  50mSv is believed to be safe.
50-250mSv is believed to increase the risk of cancer, but there isn't enough data to determine what (if any) long term health effects there are.
250-500mSv is known to increase the risk of cancer and shorten life, but the long term effects of exposure to this range are not fully understood.
500-2500mSv will cause acute radiation sickness, and is likely to cause cancer, shortlen life, etc.
2500mSv-4000mSv will kill roughly half of the people exposed.
(and it gets worse from there)

Ever hear of The Container Store?
