Story on CFLs

This was in the Vancouver Sun.

I started moving over to compact fluorescents about 10 years ago. In my office in the house I put back in incandescent light bulbs because I could feel the difference in my office this winter. It was easier putting them back in my office than getting a space heater in there.

I would love to eventually move to LED lights and I know this will mean I need to more heating, but I heat with electric, so it is a zero sum game. Long term we want to move to a geothermal heating and cooling system in the house, but the costs to get it installed are a lot more than we can consider at the moment.
