I will never change my mind about CFLs either and now I'm just so happy that there is a resource for what some consider a problem! OneGreenMommy - I'm so glad I helped!

Thank you so much for this! The only place I knew of before was Ikea, and the nearest one to me is 45 minutes. I did take one with some electronics to a place that recycles old tvs, computers, etc. but after they took it, I got the feeling they weren't so sure about it, so my guess is it wound up in a landfill :( Excellent to know about Home Depot!!
