as I said raf - let me know when you have proof of people suffering ill health from cfl's - especially considering that most people have a mini toxic lab under their sink and don't worry to much about that.
i could spend a long time talking about the toxic impacts of formaldehide (in particleboard or chipboard) or the toxic effects of other solvents people regularly use in their home.
have you ever heard of off/out-gassing?
as for CFL's in the developing world - I haven't seen any evidence of market dispacement but I know that in poorer economies people have less money to spend on electricity and will often be living with distributed energy systems so lightbulbs that are cheaper to run and don't waste 90% of their energy as heat are a good thing.
