Yeah, I didn't spend any time trying to find such an article either. I was just looking for information about that study that was done at some school comparing the effects on the children that 100% incandescent lighting has vs. 100% fluorescent lights (T12 tubes). When I skimmed over this, I became very happy to have stumbled upon it.

Yeah, it does a good job, but if you're or I am to convince others, we need a much better paper. Like I (may have) said, I can feel those effects, and it's just uncomfortable. Sure I can survive, but I just really don't like it. When I get some free time, which is what I have now, I'll look up some creditable information on this.

Well, I won't go around trying to convince anyone. I'll only present this kind of knowledge and information if it's ever appropriate. Besides, it would be difficult to convince most people because most people would laugh and say, "It doesn't bother me at all".

Yeah, that's what I've thought about. People just not paying attention to how something as "simple" as a light can make them feel. It's such a quick response for me, and I wonder if it's because I'm thinking about the effect.
They don't teach this in school - and I think they should. I truly think sleep, light, and the effects of low quality light should be taught in school. That'll be the day.

Yeah, it's going to be decades, if not centuries, before we humans evolve to that point. We humans are just now barely beginning to wake up to lots of things, such as what we are discussing here. When you really think about it, you realize that we are actually still very primitive. However, we've sort of made this illusion that we're quite advanced. Think about it though! We're still quite primitive.
Anyway, I don't think it's that people aren't really paying attention, but it's that it truly doesn't bother some people as bad as others. Refer back to that Psychology Today article on the "Pupillary flutter". They talk about individuals with Autism, and, well, I have Asperger's Syndrome which today is just being called "Mild Autism". So, I'm not surprised that I have a problem with fluorescent lights and even LEDs. I'm not surprised that I strongly prefer natural light and incandescent light.
The only reason why I prefer LED lights over fluorescent though is, they're cheaper and they don't create "dirty electricity", and also that true incandescents are pretty much not worth trying to find anymore. Well, Aero-Tech has the best incandescents, but they don't make a good old-fashioned 3-way. Their only 3-way from what I can tell is a full spectrum bulb.
