Treebeard the Ent's Journal: Long Life Light Bulb

My house is full of energy efficiant florecent light bulbs. We use them in most of our lamps. Low cost, and rarly needing to be replaced. I love them. I ran accross a web site today that tells of the world's longest burning light bulb. It was first powered up in 1901 and has been burning ever since. It is used as a continuously burning night light over the fire engines of the Livermore, CA Fire Department. Lots of photos and even a web cam of all the action.
