Florida DEP has recently posted a press release on compact fluorescent lamp usage and spill clean up. Our lab also did a modeling study to show how quickly mercury vapors can be eliminated from a room by opening the windows and using a floor fan. All of this is available at http://www.dep.state.fl.us/waste/categories/mercury/default.htm, right on the first page.
