I had no idea! Mercury in CF lightbulbs
I had never heard this until today when we were discussing amalgam fillings. I "snoped" it when I got home because I figured I was getting a line fed to me by my "global-warming doesn't exist" friend. Oh well, my CFLs aren't in lights that can get knocked over and they're saving me money. I'll just be reallllly careful with them when they burn out!

Yes, they do. And they should be recycled as universale waste. They do make mercury-free ones, they have a green tip on the end where you screw it in.
