Save the Lightbulb?

The Battle of the Bulb: How an obscure lightbulb law became a Tea Party rallying cry

I'm not a tea partier but I agree with them on this one issue. Because I would rather see than go blind with all fluorescent lights. At least with incandescent light it is full spectrum lighting whereas fluorescent lighting alone will kill many plants if you don't also give them full spectrum lighting or sunlight. Since humans need full spectrum light to stay healthy and sane it doesn't make any "Living" sense at all to make fluorescents the only lighting allowed. Saving money shouldn't be the only goal if the lights you use make everyone sick and go slowly blind(especially for those of us over 40 years of age).
