I was round a friend's house, early afternoon, plenty of natural sunlight, and he walks in and switches on the ceiling light. It was like looking at a permanent nuclear blast.
Had to get him to turn it off immediately. He couldn't understand why I didn't want it on.
I asked: "What are you trying to simulate, a hospital corridor, a police interrogation room?"
I've seen other people use 100 watt bare bulbs as their main light (and no curtains/blinds). For Christ-sake, at least get an up-lighting shade.
A big bright exposed light source and they watch tv. With the bulb reflected in the middle of the screen.
How do people live like this? Do they all have cataracts?
