I think the real future of lighting is in LED's. They have screw in bulbs that fit existing sockets, but they were around 60 bucks a piece last time I checked. The price should come down in a few years.
I use the compact now, but they contain mercury and if you break one the recommended clean up process is extensive.
CLEANUP AND DISPOSAL OVERVIEW
The most important steps to reduce exposure to mercury vapor from a broken bulb are:
1. Before cleanup
a. Have people and pets leave the room.
b. Air out the room for 5-10 minutes by opening a window or door to the outdoor
environment.
c. Shut off the central forced air heating/air conditioning (H&AC) system, if you have one.
d. Collect materials needed to clean up broken bulb.
2. During cleanup
a. Be thorough in collecting broken glass and visible powder.
b. Place cleanup materials in a sealable container.
3. After cleanup
a. Promptly place all bulb debris and cleanup materials outdoors in a trash container or
protected area until materials can be disposed of properly. Avoid leaving any bulb
fragments or cleanup materials indoors.
b. For several hours, continue to air out the room where the bulb was broken and leave the H&AC system shut off.
I thought I heard a little fly buzzing, but it is very faint, like its WAAAYY down the list. LOL
LOL, well you are 44 back, so if my picks crash out, and you pick some of the top ten you may well catch me.
Guys, it seems there are some misunderstandings about what the hearing on the 24th means. This was written by Scott68 on mystockbuddy earlier this evening.(below)
As an ESHC member, I wanted to pass along a generalized overview of what might happen at the hearing on the 24th and/or what the context of any orders approved by the court might be following the hearing on Feb. 24th.
The hearing on the 24th provides an opportunity for the court to approve of a settlement agreement between the Secured Creditors and Altus.
The other parties have the opportunity to object or consent to the agreement as they see fit, but the ultimate decision rests with the judge.
I think it is important to draw the distinction between the court approving of the agreement and the agreement actually coming to fruition.
If the court approves the settlement agreement, that gives Altus an OPPORTUNITY to buy out the secureds per the terms of the agreement.
No one is going to be handing anyone a buy-out check on Thursday.
For simplicity’s sake, think of this as a first step in a three step process for Altus:
1. Get the settlement agreement approved by the court
2. Pay the secureds
3. Foreclose (There is nothing to indicate that foreclosure is what Altus is aiming for, I'm just including this step because it is a possibility that the ESHC is cognizant of.)
Thursday is step 1 for Altus, but steps two and three are not the sorts of actions that are going to happen overnight; those steps may take weeks or even months to occur … if they ever do.
In fact, Altus may never complete the deal.
If Altus does, at some point, buy out the secureds that simply puts Altus in the place of the secureds for purposes of further negotiations with the other parties in the bankruptcy.
The most obvious danger to shareholders is that Altus eventually buys out the secureds and then moves to foreclose prior to any other deals/options coming before the court.
(Again, the move to foreclose is purely speculative on my part because there is nothing to indicate, at least that I've seen, that indicates that foreclosure is Altus' ultimate goal).
Here are things to watch for in any order that is issued by the court on the 24th:
1. Does the order preclude any other party from buying out the secureds?
2. Have the secureds actually received an offer from Altus ... or anyone, for that matter?
3. What is the timeline for when Altus can begin foreclosure proceedings, if they chose to do so?
4. Does the order preclude any other party from proposing additional financing and/or a plan of reorganization?
Reviewing document 565, particularly subsections (I.) and (11) will be helpful in answering these questions.
I hope this helps everyone understand what is happening on the 24th.

I'm new at all of this. There are times when I'm pretty sure that I have no idea what I'm doing. So, keep that in mind when you read anything I post here.
It is not a done deal. There is a difference in the court approving a deal and a deal actually happening. Dont expect any checks to be written any time soon. This is one of those tricky things for me to comment on before anything actually happens.
Yahoo message boards are not exactly the best source of information on any subject. LOL
No, Feb 24th is NOT the final date, we still have a way to go in this process, if you look here at "Courtroom" you will see dates after the 24th.

The 24th is a settlement hearing between the secured creditors and Altus
Yes the Feb 24th court date is still on.
Great pic redfisher, I am going to do my best to get down for the July race, I am on an Equity Committee and it has been taking all my time recently. Usually I would be going to the spring race here in Atlanta
but the damn communists took it away. Grrrrr!!!!
WooHoo !!!!
I would like to thank all of those people who have helped me over the years that made this prestigious award possible.......oh wait, I dont win anything at all for being in victory lane for one week. LOL
Ahhhh I see. Thanks, guess I can live with 108 to start. LOL
EDIT:
Thanks BullnBear, I had to get my better half and both of us take off our shoes to count down from 43 (she has extra toes) LOL
Are we not counting the points that our drivers got for leading a lap? Thought we got whatever points our drivers got. Thats how I came up with 110 for mine.
Here ya go. No recovery for the current common shareholders. Does not mean you cant make money trading it, but dont be the last one holding

Yep, perhaps if the powers that be see that this board is by far the most posted and one of the most read on the weekends they could be convinced to increase the prizes?? Pageviews equal dollars to them.
From the un-official results looks like my picks of 22,18,14 will net me 110 points to start off the season!!

He is definitely going on my list, I am still trying to replace Dale Jarrett as my favorite driver, although Trevor is running for the Nationwide Championship this year not the Cup.
Unreal !!!! What a finish. Neat for the kid !!!
Looks like it was AJ
3rd 4th 5th i have a good shot!!!!
Cant believe my picks are 3rd, 4th, and 16th but 6o laps is a long time.
That was a hell of a hit straight into the wall, that safer barrier is amazing!!
This board is the most posted by far today. LOL

I love that camera shot from low on the bottom of the track watching the cars come at it.
Holy Crap !!!
Hahaha You wish, thats the only way your scrubs have a chance. LOL
Actually I think a fair number of us do, around 7 I think
AGGGGHHHHHHHH !!!!!! NOOOOO Kyle
Looks like he may not have that much damage.
Ya I gotcha, thanks to all you mods for keeping up with this.
A 123 straight pick could come with a bunch of bonus points, maybe a thought for next year.
Or maybe I am misunderstanding it, just read the rules again. Thought we got points for picking the finishing order.
You entered my numbers wrong tbrod.

Yes much of the land is public land, however the mining lobby has been fighting this kind of thing for years, but yes there is the possibility the fees go up.(5%) I am working on getting some more information on this.
lol, "groupies" ROFL
Hey guys, I am trying to find a travel trailer/RV/Camper to borrow/rent for a while in Utah. If anyone can help out send me an email CPRKSA@gmail.com
thanks
I asked about that and the best I can figure the "lost hole" is a rumor. Any idea where it came from?
Welcome to the party portx10, the Dunlap report is a bit questionable because sometime after it was done he lost his license.

I dont think we have seen any exact amounts for NOL's, but they should be substantial. (multi millions)
Stay away from the buffalo burgers.
Shares are few and far between, the reverse split severely limited the float. I am holding tight to all of mine.
Ya I saw Pete's post as well, just thought he would not be afraid of a little more competition
