PS. New product - Home Depot is now carrying DIMMABLE fluorescent bulbs for recessed lighting. I bought some made by Phillips. Be sure to get soft white, as that's the warmest color they make so far. Do a whole room at a time so you don't notice the color shift as they are still a cooler color than tungsten bulbs!

Also, Home Depot is trying to green it up more by providing assistance with paperwork for the 50% tax credits for going solar if you buy panels from them. I know they're the ikcy big chain store driving out the little guy, but at least they're getting smart about marketing these items now!
