They were probably getting pretty orangey too. The tungsten deposits 
inside non-halogen bulbs plays havoc with color temp. 

It's a curiosity to me though, why it is that as the tungsten wire gets 
thinner while depositing itself all over the inside of the bulb, that the wire 
should be burning brighter and bluer, yet the output is so filtered as to give 
entirely opposite results.

Just musing.
