Yeah, I pretty much have to use "warm white" or "soft white" myself, in
the one lamp where I actually *do* have a compact fluorescent unit
installed (my "tech lab" outpost, in my Mum's basement.) I find they're
better for reading under than the "daylight" ones, which are a bit too
harsh for my almost 29-year old eyes.

On the other hand, Mum uses the "daylight" lights in the outside fixtures,
and they seem to work great out there.....


You make an excellent point, when I was younger, I could almost read a
newspaper in the dark of night ...

I think as you get older, you will appreciate the daylight bulb for work
.... wife uses them for knitting, quilting and crochet -- to the
exclusion of any and all others ... I have made a high power blue white
LED light attached to her sewing machine, she also likes it ...
especially with a black or dark thread on dark material.
