        \- er, how many years of lightbulbs is 50 bulbs?
        \_ For a restaurant?  Not that many.  For an average house... a lot.
           There's an annoying number of fixtures that just won't take any of
           the CFL bulb shapes.
           \_ I hate the light produced by CFL bulbs.
              \_ I've found there's a large variation in color between brands.
                 Some are greenish, some blueish, many white.  If you miss the
                 yellow of incandescents, try Lights of America; they tend to
                 be a bit more yellowish.  BTW, shades improve the color and
                 palatability of any bulb.  --dbushong
