I guess you ain't a rocket scientist then. You were the one who worried about putting CFLs in enclosed ceiling fixtures when they clearly warn you that you have to use special bulbs for that.
The ones I have do not say anything about not using them in enclosed ceiling fixtures.  It only say's not to use them outside which I didn't.  Pay attention dude. The bulb was in a lamp.

Your problem is that some of us do pay attention, but you can't seem to remember your last few posts.

We have enclosed ceiling lights in a couple of our rooms and I am wondering what might have happened if the bulb had been in one of them and the heat couldn't have escaped.

I wonder what would happen if I put bottled water in the gas tank of my car. Hmmmm? It doesn't say anything on the bottle about not doing that.  :rolleyes:

The bottled water doesn't list any warnings either.
