You can also get incandescents from a site called 1000 bulbs. I usually just buy utility bulbs (like for ovens/dryers). Low wattage but we shouldn’t have a lot of light after sunset anyway.

Alicia Kozakiewicz was 13 when a man locked a dog collar around her neck and chained her in his basement. For four days he r*p*d her, b*at her and t*rtured her. He streamed it live on the internet. Her parents thought she was asleep upstairs. She had snuck out on New Year's Day to meet a "friend" she met online. On the fourth morning he told her: "I'm beginning to like you too much. Tonight we're going for a ride." It was January 1, 2002, in Pittsburgh. Alicia had spent months chatting online with someone she thought she could trust. That night she left the family dinner, walked down the street, and got into a car. The man behind the wheel was 38-year-old Scott Tyree. He drove her five hours to his house in Virginia. In the video below, Alicia describes the moment he turned on the lights in his basement: The walls were covered in devices. She realized she had every reason to be afraid of the dark. It was a room built for t*rture. He broke her nose. She learned that the moment she stopped being useful to him, he would k*ll her. So she tried one thing: make him see her as a human, not an object. Then came the line that told her time was up. He said she was starting to mean too much to him, and that tonight they would go for a ride. She knew what "a ride" meant. That morning he fed her for the first time and left for work. Chained and alone, she thought about her parents. When was the last time she had told them she loved them? Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away, a man watching Tyree's broadcast recognized her face from the news and called the FBI. Agents broke down the door that same day. They found Alicia chained to the floor. Tyree pleaded guilty and was sentenced to just under 20 years. Alicia survived. Today she travels the country teaching kids how pr*dators hunt online. Several states have passed "Alicia's Law" in her name. She was 13. He was a stranger behind a screen. How many kids are talking to someone like him tonight?
