Second thoughts about LED bulbs:

60,000 hours under benign conditions is not unreasonable. All the bets would be off if there are power surges on the mains though.

It looks like marthome.com has the same bulb as gaiam.com (for about 15%less) and the 36 LED bulb is rated at 60 lumens. The bulbs at ledlight.com have 18 LED's and rated at 50 lumens - fishey?

For reference a 60W incondescent light = 13W CFL => 800 lumens.

I don't think LED bulbs are quite there yet and I would stick to CFL's for most applications.
