Another Green claim not quite true? I'm SHOCKED

Well, well, well, it appears that those CFLs that we are all supposed to be using now aren't exactly the power savers that it's claimed.

So.  Not only is the light not as good, not only do they contain mercury, not only do you basically have to call a Hazmat team if you break one, the actual power usage is twice what is claimed.  That's just spiffy. Good thing The Government isn't doing anything stupid like outlawing the incandescent bulb based on faulty information.
