CFLs for the masses
EPA cleanup instructions for mercury spills: read it.
PG&E has been giving away CFLs, but I wonder how many people know how to dispose of them? They have a link on the top of their CFL promotional page: http://www.pge-cfl.com/
So.. I remember when I was young, one time my mom broke a thermometer by accident. She called me over and we caught the mercury in some paper and then into my hand. I played with it for a while, dumping it back and forth and fingering it with my other hand, eventually dropping it into the carpet below us.
