I hate the way things look with almost all flourescent bulbs.  I know
they use less power, but it look unnatural, and most of the time I
can see the flicker, which royally sucks.

Using a computer monitor under flourescent drives me nuts and gives me a
headache.

In fact, even just working with paper under flourescent lights bothers
me.

I once saw some tubes that were not too bad, but my boss at that time
would not order more because the said they were far too expensive.

So, I started just turning off the lights completely, and I've been a
cave-dweller ever since... :)
