CFL's are a good thing, but the bulbs take a while to reach full brightness, which is a pain if you want to flip a light on briefly, or any time you want immediate illumination. Why not create a hybrid lighting fixture to be used wherever this is an issue, with an incandescent bulb plus a CFL; the incandescent bulb turns off the moment the CFL reaches full brightness, Minimal energy ding, but much greater convenience, and possibly some safety benefits.
