Think of it this way, Frank; this bulb has now lasted better than $50 worth
of other bulbs... If that bulb were on the shelf today with a $50 price tag,
you wouldn't even think of buying it cuz it is too expensive. We can't win.
On another note, the CFL bulbs take a couple minutes to reach full
brightness (less in hot weather or when held in front of a heater; longer
when encased in another shell to look decorative).
