 How much money does it take to screw in a compact fluorescent light bulb?
 About US$4.28 for the bulb plus labour -- unless you break the bulb. Then
 you, like Brandy Bridges of Ellsworth, Maine, could be looking at a cost
 of about $2,004.28, which doesn't include the costs of frayed nerves
 and risks to health.

  Where can I find this legislation?

Legislation Would Ban Incandescent Lightbulbs, Favor CFLs

California Assemblyman Lloyd Levine is expected to introduce legislation this week to make his state the first to ban incandescent lightbulbs, Reuters reports (via GrooveyGreen). The “How Many Legislators Does it Take to Change a Lightbulb Act” would ban incandescents by 2012 in favor of compact fluorescent lightbulbs.

California was the first state to mandate cuts in greenhouse gas emissions, targeting a 25 percent reduction in emissions by 2020.
