Here in the Chicagoland area, our power company is offering the new compact flourescent light bulbs (CFLs) at a discounted price. We can get a dozen of them for 99 cents each. Seems like a good deal. In the pamphlet that explains the program, it states that the new CFL bulbs cannot be used in an enclosed light fixture. Hmmm, I got to wondering, exactly what is an enclosed light fixture? I would think that it is at least a fixture that is recessed into the ceiling with some sort of glass covering the bottom. But what about the light fixture over my kitchen table? This fixture hangs down from the ceiling on a chain and has four translucent white globes that cover the bulbs. Is this considered an enclosed light fixture? Because the bulbs themselves are covered by the white globes? Could some of the Creek geniuses explain this to me? Thanks for any ideas. Pete
