Yes, I replaced the dimmer for the din. chandelier with a switch -- I got past
GK by saying we could dim by unscrewing bulbs (5 X, 6W ).

The first compact fluorescent I bought cost about $15. While trying to
install it in the lamp that we have come on automatically at night, I
dropped the damn thing and broke it. All the supposed monetary advantages
of switching dissappeared in a split second. Took a number of years before
I tried again. We now have several, but unfortunately the house is designed
with lots of dimmable 75 Watt flood lamps for which efficient replacements
are not available.
