Right. But It isn't an answer to the CFL issue.

Somewhere between "best bulbs I ever used", and "worst thing ever" are 
usable answers.

I haven't had problems except in circuitry that wasn't designed for 
them. I'm sitting in a house with almost all the lights being CFL's, and 
going down the bands tonight, 20 had no meter movement, 40 none either, 
and 80 was right about S1. The system works fine, BTW - those are real 
numbers.

Yet I believe people when they say they have trouble with them, although 
I tend to discount the report when the stories get a little wild.

So yeah, I would like to get some authoritative idea on what is going on 
here. I mean that's why we're here isn't it?
