"Heatballs" - Their time has come

Heh!



[BERLIN] Siegfried Rotthaeuser and his brother-in-law have come up with a legal way of importing and distributing 75 and 100 watt light bulbs -- by producing them in China, importing them as "small heating devices" and selling them as "heatballs."

Best idea I've heard in ages. Well done, sir!

I am currently using a 60W bulb for that exact purpose - to provide heat in a small space.

Many folks use light bulbs to heat well houses, and other places. I reccomend two bulbs, in case one blows a filament.

What two bulbs do in the privacy of their own sockets is none of your business.

Ah, that's what you modernists say. God made Bulbs, and Sockets. Homosocketuality is a grave transgression. As also is blowing filaments among unmarried bulbs.

Just cause it's consenting adults, doesn't mean socketual behaviour is acceptable unto the source of all power.

I have a relative who uses 3 bulbs to keep plants in a small greenhouse from freezing.
