I heard on the radio yesterday that only the energy saving bulbs will be on sale in the next few years, and that supermarkets will start phasing out stocks of ordinary bulbs within the next year or so. Has anyone els heard this?
What about table lamps and lights where the energy saving bulbs would not fit?

For the past 3 days, I've been killing over 20 flies a day in my house! On the first day, I noticed about 6 of them on the wall, and were very easy to kill. They didn't even budge or try to fly away when I killed them. Then I started noticing at least 10 of them on my sliding balcony door, and killed those as well. They are all over but they dont fly around, they seem to just stay by a window or a mirror. Right now, I looked in my laundry room and the vent on the ceiling seems to be the point of origin. There are over 20 flies in there crawling around. I live in an apartment building, do you think something happened on the floor above me? I just cannot understand what is going on!!

Is it better to leave your heating on low all day and you turn it up & down as required or have it that the heating comes on & off with the timer

I have crickets every year around this time in my basement. I have no idea how they come in? Can you wager a guess? How do I get rid of them besides actually running around trying to catch/crush them.How can I prevent them from coming into my basement in the first place.

They are small brown spots in a little cluster... probably about 10-20 spots in hthe cluster. I have had alot of moths and flies in my kitchen which I have killed with fly repellent. Is this the cause of the spots? If not, what are they? They are everywhere.. on my kitchen floor, on the sink, even on shelves and things on the wall. I don't get it. What the hell are they?!

I was sitting in my own room with the door shut, and then I smell the propane. I walk out my room, and the smell is so strong I know someone is going on. I go into the kitchen, and find one of my roommates LEFT THE GAS ON without a FLAME for at LEAST 1 hr.

(I called the fire department, took all necessary precautions, and everything is clear now)

I am aware of the DANGERS and DEATH that can result from a mistake like this - but I lack the knowledge and facts around it.

Can you help me make a list of reasons of how leaving the stove on can cause death, etc. Do you know how long it takes for propane to kill, how many it kills a year, combustion rates?

I'll take anything (ANYTHING) factual to scare this girl straight.

Thank you!

The best I ever saw was a house with a broken window.
The burglar was lying on the ground, pillowcase in hand...
Inside the house was the OWNER with a shotgun, pointing at the window.
The word "NEXT!" was along the bottom of the sign.

Runner up; "This house is protected by two guard dogs. Neither have arthritus! Do you?"
