Yes, but keep in mind that this paper is 10 years old.
I have noticed locally that the selection of incandescent bulbs at the
big-box stores here (Wisconsin) is much less than it was only a year ago. I
suspect it has to do with shelf space and the profit margin being higher on
the CFL products being higher. I have also noticed that the lifespan and
quality of the incandescent bulbs has decreased dramatically. I better
stock-up now....
