Don't forget the Gretas of AB who will tell us that lightbulbs are destroying our planet and we urgently need to find a more eco-friendly way of illuminating our homes.
0h and at least half dozen to tell you it's posted in the wrong category.
Oh and a couple to tell you that Light bulbs were bigger and more reliable in the 50s
// Don't forget the Gretas of AB who will tell us that lightbulbs are destroying our planet and we urgently need to find a more eco-friendly way of illuminating our homes. //
the eco friendly solution exists already - the candle. they will tell you it's best because it casts no treacherous shadows. that the reason for no shadows is that it casts no light, is neither here nor there.
... then sqad will chip in and tell us that National Lightbulb service bulbs are very poor and that we really need to get some private ones from Spain.
