For example, I've been very interested in home solar systems for over a decade - but it has to make economic sense before I'm installing one. On the other hand, CFL light bulbs have gotten cheap enough that I've put them in most rooms of the house.

I did the CFLs too in all but a few cans where I use halogen spots that look nice if I have company ever. When it's just me and my daughter, we only burn the CFLs. BION, I cut my electric bill in half after the switch . . . seriously! BTW, we heat water on propane.
Best,
