a green screen light stand of mine got nocked over today, (it is a "daylight 105 watts bulb 5500K"
type bulb according to the group i bought it from on amazon) part of the light bulb came unscrewed (where it is not really suposed to) but after checking it out, nothing seemed to be leaking, or broken. after further inspection, turns out a little bridge area between the parts of the light bulb broke (see picture in link) and the light is now not fully working. according to my brother, it does smell diffrent than the other identical one that came with it (it was a 2 pack), but is not broken. i told my brother dont go near that, bad idea, but he just moved it, and is currently on the other side of the room from the light bulb. i tried to call the company, not open on week ends....

so... i was wondering, should i peform the standard regulation way of cleaning and disposing of the bulb ASAP, or what?
sorry for the long crazy question, but i dont know who else to ask....
thank you!!
