This that and the other thing. Though there might be more of this than that. And little of the other things. Maybe.

Light My Way

I was perusing some environmental websites and found one with a section on how to find Energy-Saving Light bulbs. It's pretty spiffy. You click on the type of fixture (ceiling fan, recessed, pendant, sconce, etc.), shape (globe, flood, traditional, etc.) and then select the features you want (dimmable, enclosed, 3-way, brightness, etc.).

It goes through the list of bulbs and lists the ones that match your criteria. Then you can compare and contrast the results. Only issue I had was that the list didn't indicate whether the bulbs were Mercury free or not.

There's also a separate page of tips for buying and using energy efficient bulbs. I haven't had time to eyeball that section. So if yall get a chance, let me know how helpful it is.

Look Up
When the sun goes down tonight, step outside and look west. You'll be able to see the Moon and Mercury, side-by-side, through the sunset. To see Mercury is rare but to see the moon alongside it; Amazing! Skymap available at www.spaceweather.com

Hockey
So it's the Penguins vs flyers in the East and Red Wings vs Stars in the West. Poor Canada.
