Energy Saving

Yesterday Taxi drivers in Buenos Aires blocked Plaza de Mayo in protest at new laws governing bus lanes. There are around 35,000 taxis here and the new law will allow them to travel in bus lanes when carrying passengers but not when empty.
I think they have a point if for no other reason than that it would be virtually imposible to enforce such a law.
Argentina suffers from a shortage of electricity so the use of energy saving bulbs is encouraged. However the cost differential is huge and given the relatively low cost of electricity here changing does not make much sense.
