I take it that you've eliminated all conventional fluorescent lighting from your home. As you know, even the "green" versions of this lighting source contain Hg. Unfortunately, I've not been able to get rid of the fluorescent fixtures in my home yet but there's hope...LEDs. They're now common in stoplights and decorative Christmas lighting. Can low cost domestic lighting be far behind? And yes, I realize that if I want to shell out something like $40-$60, I can purchase the equivalent of say a 60W incandescent bulb in pure LED form. Too expensive for me at the moment.
