Good idea. Go to Home Depot. Buy a 100' Leviton YUS-A9500 Temporary Light String (the kind you see at construction sites and used car lots), for about $50, with a light socket in a bright yellow plastic shroud every 10'. Remove the shrouds and buy 3 of Home Depot's 14 W CF 4-packs and hang the string around the ceiling perimeter. Nick
