On or about: 03-18-08  07:37, Tom Walker did engage Jay Emrie regarding,
but not limited to: CFL Light Bulbs

 JE>EV>It got me wondering if my friends words were true about ALL CFLs being
 JE>EV>made in China so I thought I'd ask here in the Tech Echo for you all to
 JE>EV>look at the packaging and see if your brand of CFLs are also made in
 JE>EV>China?
 
 JE>All that I have here are made in China. Since they contain mercury I
 JE>wouldn't be surprised that it is true.

 TW> And Mercury is REQUIRED for a CFL to work.

To expound; required for a florescent to work. It's the Mercury vapour that
is released should one break, that one should run away from.

 TW> Although they have Greatly reduced the quanity in the lamp then in the
 TW> old days.
