Death to Old Fossils—But When Precisely?

Please read and share: http://stupidpartymathvmyth.com/1/post/2016/05/death-old-fossils-part-2.html

"As of today it is irrational to not replace all of ones lights with LED lights. Just this weekend I saw 40 watt LED Bulbs at Home Depot for 97 cents, 65 Watts for $1.97. These LED lights are 650% more energy efficient than incandescent lights and far less irritating than fluorescent lights–other brands do even better than that."

Pig boy from Missouri also got on the rant, oh for the days when idiots could rail about incandescent light bulbs. I blame Trump he has sucked out all the oxygen out of Right Wing nut jobs.
