Light bulb attack sheds more heat than light: Our view




There are two ways to look at the great debate over light bulbs. One is that government regulations meant to save energy by filling the nation's roughly 4 billion light sockets with vastly more efficient light bulbs are an outrageous offense to personal freedom. The other is summed up by a funny Internet spot last year for Cree's superefficient light emitting diode (LED) bulbs: "The light bulbs in your house were invented by Thomas Edison in 1879. Now think about that with your 2013 brain. Do you still do your wash down at the creek while your eldest son stands lookout for wolves?"
