Yes, and if you drop and break one, or one explodes, you can't just pick up the pieces. They contain mercury, and you are supposed to call a haz-mat team to come and properly clean up the mess. The approximate cost? 2-5,000 dollars, American. And your home owner's insurance WON'T pay for it! I'm NOT kidding! These so-called eco-friendly bulbs aren't so eco-friendly! They are hazardous!! Blame it all on Al "the Bore" Gore.
