Acanthophis Gore pt II


"Nobody is interested in solutions if they don't think there's a problem. Given that starting point, I believe it is appropriate to have an over-representation of factual presentations on how dangerous (global warming) is." -- Al Gore


We switched from our standard light bulbs to the new compact fluorescent spiral thing last summer. We were told that these things were more environmentally friendly (I hate that catch phrase) and they would save great amounts of energy. Of course when our first bill came there was no change. No savings were ever evident and four months later they had all expired.

Now the enviro-nazis want to force you to change to these expensive suckers. We bought 16 bulbs at $2.50 a piece. When they burned out we bought two eight pack bulbs, made possible by good 'ol Edison, for $5.00 total.
You do the math. We never saw enough savings to offset the 40 bucks we spent.

We didn't notice a savings because compared to all of the other energy users in our home, light bulbs comprise a very small percentage. We leave our light off most of the day, but the AC or Heat is on for the majority of the time.


But low energy costs are not the only lie being peddled by these Global Warming propagandists.
The American Spectator had a great article on the issue.
Believe me it's worth the read.
