I would recommend that everyone who is concerned about the relative
advantages of CFLs over incandescent bulbs read the following:
http://www.rmi.org/images/PDFs/Climate/CFLLCA_FinalShort_080401.pdf
It covers all the points including manufacturing and disposal
impacts as well as operating impacts of CFLs and incandescent bulbs
on the environment. The CFLs win even if you run them on short
operating cycles.
