I got away from light backgrounds for three reasons:

1. I don't like looking into a light bulb
2. More electrons hitting the phosphors
	generating more light output would seem to
	generate more UV and X-ray and whatever else leaks
	(or radiates) out of these tupbes we stare at.
3. I seem to experience less eye fatigue.
