Decent article and an expression of the current theory. In practice, I
turn CFL's on and off quite regularly and never have them burn out.
Other than a couple of bad dollar store bulbs, I just don't have
failures. Everything in the house is CFL. I just can't live life
consumed with every detail such as counting the time between turning a
light on and off.

I can see where that would be a very taxing exercise of brain power.

Thers a lot of bs written on this topic. That article has at least got
one thing right, but its conclusions are incorrectly based and wrong.
