A bright idea

Recently Folioweekly's Bouquets & Brickbats section gave Beaches Energy Services a bouquet for "persuading customers to conserve energy through an old-fashioned giveaway. Beaches Energy recently sent out electric bills with a free 13-watt compact fluorescent bulb - one that emits as much light as a 60-watt incandescent builb, but lasts 10 times longer and prevents more than 450 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions in its lifetime." And likely reduces mercury emissions as well. Sounds like pretty innovative thinking for an electric utility. Et tu, JEA?
