Have been slowly swapping to CFL bulbs. We have a variety of fitting styles and in some of them the curly ones just don't work.
Over this computer have a halogen (ordinary light-bulb shape) as got headaches and blurred vision trying to use a CFL.
Got better bulb longevity when left the CFL's on rather than on only when room in use which may negate some of power savings.
Though much of the supposed power savings have been eroded by increases in power charges (they have to get their profits back).

about half of the sites on the list are not related to child porn and include a slew of online poker sites, YouTube links, regular gay and straight porn sites, Wikipedia entries, euthanasia sites, websites of fringe religions such as satanic sites, fetish sites, [and] Christian sites
So most of Wordpress will fall off the Australian Internet then. This for example. (Relatively safe for work though some filters may block URL for the nymph word, site also has external links that definitely are not safe for work).

It must be true if it says so in Wikipedia ...
Wikipedia now says you were born in Lower Hutt.Brown was born in Lower Hutt, New Zealand, and now lives in Auckland, New Zealand with his long-term partner, journalist Fiona Rae, and their two sons.

Don McKinnon recently got his knighthood from the Queen. So his notepaper can now apparently be headed "The Right Honourable Sir Donald Charles McKinnon ONZ GCVO".
So maybe the dream could come true.

Sorry Islander,
Should have checked they were in real dictionaries.
Apparently what looking for are isograms. According to Wikipedia there is one with 17 letters - subdermatoglyphic but word not in common use.

Thanks to Google
No that's cheating!
You probably used scrabblesolver.co.uk when playing online scrabble as well.islander probably reads all her many dictionaries so was only trying to level the opportunity.
No Kyle, I don't play online scrabble so definitely don't (and wouldn't) use scrabblesolver.

One specialist mentioned a boy that always did better with hearing tests on hot days - (could see muscle movement of male tech in short but not in long sleeves).
Doing a vision test for a non-verbal child also made for interesting times.

Okay islander, I'll play.
