I recommend to stay away from them and to go back to good old incandescent bulbs. The reason - they contain MERCURY. It says right there, but it's so small that people think it's nothing special. I thought the same, until sites like NewsTarget and Dr.Mercola pointed out an warned about the dangers. So, if this bulb breaks, which is very easy, the Mercury is out. It's dangerous gas, very poisonous, and you need immediately open the windows and isolate the area for cleanup, or to call somebody who knows what to do. I removed almost all these little bastards from my house and put in the blue bulbs, which give a nice day light. Try not put them in the garbage or recycle box. Put each bulb in a separate bag and then in some box, padded and find out how and where to dispose them.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('3147','Zal'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('3147','Zal','Hi Mark,\r\nbtw, \"low energy bulbs\", aka \"mini-fluorescents\" are not as Green as they have been promoted for years.

I have BANS and have started a couple of sites to get the hang of it. I have a few hobby blogs that I have started, now I want to take them to the next level with BANS. I started with my fly fishing blog and it was pretty much over night that it started to make a little money. Not a lot but I have only just begun. I have set today aside to install BANS on another hobby blog. I find it is good to take a voice recorder with me when I go out. It's a quick way to record your every thought. Funny story: I used to keep a notepad and pencil on my bedside night stand but thought it would be better to buy a voice activated voice recorder. I thought it would beat fumbling around in the dark trying to write something down and I wouldn't have to turn the light on. Well the next morning I had about two hours of very loud snoring, must have been my wife. :)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1943','James Mann'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1943','James Mann','This post series is great.

BANS is included in this analogy.I realyl want to make a go of it with this excellent opportunity Mark is offering us here. I know I can focus and learn from Mark and make a true business empire out of it. When you say stuff like "make a niche market" or "make a list of everyday stuff and create niches from it"; what does that mean? If I see my lawnmower needs repairing ...? do I come up with lawnmowerWheels.com or lawnMowerBelts.com (which are probably already taken BTW). Don't you also have to research keywords as well before you decide on a "niche" domain name as well? I guess maybe I don't really know what a "niche" really is and how to pick one or maybe I'm trying to make it more difficult than it really is which isn't uncommon for me. thanks, Jonathan<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1422','Jonathan'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1422','Jonathan','Okay I\'m not a newbie or anything but I\'ve been \"messing\" with a little of everything for a long time and I know I need to focus.

In addition, since Mark and I have purchased so many domains, I primarily have worked on turning those into niches instead of finding a niche first. One of my biggest goals is to find niches to go with what we already have, instead of buying more. We'll see how that works! I've gotten quite a few ideas just from CNN or local news stories - this is where www.Earnhardt88.com originated.
