I really wasn't commenting on the time they last.  I was thinking more
about the fact it costs more energy to make then regular bulbs, so you
start behind the power curve.  You have to run a certain amount time to
just make up for that extra energy.  Not concerned when you get your money
back, thinking when the world starts saving power. :)
