[GreenKeys] Off Topic: Curly-Q light bulbs

[jim at k6ccc.org]

As several people have pointed out, CFLs have largely been replaced with LEDs.  FAR better in almost all respects (other than they are almost all made in China).  One of the things I really like is you can get a variety of color temperatures.  Personally I never have liked "warm white".  Makes everything look yellow.  With LEDs, you can find anywhere from 2700 Kelvin to over 6000 Kelvin.  Some ranges are a little harder to find, but they generally are available.  Personally I generally go for the 4000 - 5000 range.

GM OMs;

So - one of the lights in the bathroom burns out.

I take it to Lowe's and try to find a matching one.

There are NO Curly-Q light bulbs - anywhere!

These things were supposed to cure all the world's
current problems - and anything else bad that would
ever happen again.

Who can tell me what happened?
