I just bought my first energy-saving light bulb, on sale for $5 at a Rong-Aid; it's supposed to last ten times longer than a conventional bulb and consume a quarter of the juice, and it comes with a five-year warranty. This GE Bancorp product (made in China, natch) makes me doubt Little Jeffrey will be in light bulbs very much longer. On the other hand, given the mania for redecorating, will people want to buy light bulbs that outlast their lamps?
