Honestly, I can't take pics of the disaster. It's too hard to even think about it. Using CFLs so the burnt'ness isn't as bad as I'd think it would be. So if I stake them up it should be all right? I mean it's a terrible sight to see your ladies laying down instead of up. they bent about 60% of the way up so I hope it will be all right.

Anyone have a similar experience?

And if I didn't stake them up, what would be the negative effects if I left them laying horizontal? In other words, just kept them bent?
