That is the question being tested in California. Legislators have taken a step towards placing a ban on your average 50 cent incandescent light bulb in the effort to save our environment. What would replace them are CFLs. Those are those spiral bulbs which look cool, but also carry the price tag (about $7). In the long run, they work longer and save money on your electric bill.
On average 2-billion lightbulbs are sold of which only 5 percent (100 million) are CFLs. The "How Many Legislatures Does it Take to Change a Lightbulb Act" would permanently place a ban on incandescent bulbs by 2012. Maybe other states may follow, as global warming becomes more and more of a political concern.
