I'm upset!
If these "lightbulbs/light bulbs/ lamps or whatever the politically correct nomenclature of the day were GREEN and of the CFC variety ( I think that's typed correctly) we'd all have a better future in store.
DaveO I'm aghast that you of all people not did not consider this in your original post, thus leading to fewer changings and a better brighter future(no pun intended, but accepted all the same) for us all!

Did you recycle the old Bulb? And if its a fluorescent was it broken and did you handle it correctly?

Well I think y'all got entirely wrong in the first place. They are not light bulbs, lamps, tube, ets., but darkness SUCKERS! When they get full, they need to be replaced. They do NOT burn out! After all, when they reach capacity, can you see any light in them? Of course not - just darkness!

Just as buckets come in different shapes and sizes, so has the handy darkness sucker been so designed. In a bright room, do you need it a highly rated dark sucker on - NO! There is very little darkness to be removed. However, in a shop at night, where darkness abounds, you need as good a dark sucker you can get!

See - it is the opportunity to share valuable information and "en-LIGHTEN" the masses that makes this board so valuable!

I think you've nailed it. The real question is - How many Bud Lights does it take to change a light bulb?

Never mind. The ability to change light bulbs no longer available in Bud Light.
