idk about radiation and "dirty electricity" and all that, but i know for a fact that there's a difference to me at least. i figured i wasn't the only one, and then all these people are coming out who have severe anxiety and sensory processing disorders and autism saying what i've been feeling ever since cfl's first came out-the temperature and color of those bulbs are all wrong; it feels unnatural. fluorescent lighting in general does-i can hear it humming just like i hear some plugs humming, or the playstation or tv, and those little bug-deterrent plugins that chase them away with high-frequency sounds that are supposed to be inaudible to humans

it's good to know i'm not alone in this-even now, so many years after this post, they still haven't produced a cfl that doesn't overstimulate the hell out of me
