Understood, and no worries.  Just for the record, that's exactly the logic I 
have been following.  It is at hardware stores and such that I was looking. 
I turned to LFS' as a last resort.  If I were looking for big bulbs, I would 
have had no problems.  But I'm looking for 13 watt straight pins.  That's 
the problem.  Even among the small bulbs, they appear to be relatively rare. 
In fact, of all the sites you pointed out to me, none of them carried that 
configuration.  So, as I said before, I'm going to the home lighting shop to 
pick up my 5 buck 2700k's.

Now the issue is building my own reflector.  I've got the mylar.  I don't 
have the patience for the physics..;)
