There’s a new law, part of a massive governmental energy-saving program that will completely phase out the use of those energy-gobbling incandescent light bulbs by the year 2014.

Yep, so if you’re really into the old bulbs better get scouring now and buy them while you can.

On the other hand, as long as you have to buy ‘new’ bulbs why not go a step further and get some of the full spectrum light bulbs on the market?

Full spectrum lights, while not a substitute for natural sunlight, have been shown to aid in keeping us healthy. We’re talking better chances of avoiding colds, lowering our blood pressure and even better sleep.

I kid you not! Mother Nature knows what she’s doing. And full spectrum light bulbs are as close as you can get, indoors.

Real Goods carries some nice ones (and there happens to be some in the outlet there) (discounts are a good thing).
