Let there be light

Random aside:
I had another of those obnoxious globe lightbulbs burn out in my bathroom... arg. Well, I have been replacing any burned out bulbs in the house with compact fluorescents, but I have resisted this in the bathroom because a spiral buld would look odd. Well, I found globular compact fluorescants at the BX today. Two of them, even though they claim 60 watt light equivalence, are brighter that the four 55 watt globe incandescants that I used to use... I left two of the old bulbs in for looks, but disconnected them.
Nifty: I may not save much gasoline, but I can save some power.
The downside is that with all that white light, the room looks, somehow, dirtier than it used to.
