About this fix

Kelly's mom is CFL-adverse due to their white light appearance. Perhaps there is a cheap way to add a yellow hue to the fluorescent light to appease those interested in aesthetics along with efficiency... "Aesthetic efficiency" if you will :)

Change your Lightbulbs

You'd be surprised how much energy lighting takes in a typical home; it represents about 7% of the energy costs. Your 75 or 100 watt lightbulbs can inexpensively be replaced by low energy compact fluorescent bulbs that save energy and last longer. Replacing one 75 watt incandescent bulb with a comparable CFL can save an estimated $22 a year.
