Why is it that when one wants cfls, one is forced to have the weird light
output that many find hazy and hard to see in? I'd have thought that the
really white phosphoreds would add very little to the cost and be much
better for lighting purposes, or is the cream/green/yellow fuzzy one very
much more efficient or something?
It even makes my eyes feel tired even though I cannot see in it.

Lamp manufacturers spent some time trying to work out what the
light properties are that make people dislike CFLs versus filament
lamps.

The bottom line is they can't find any - in double blind trials,
for those who claim to dislike CFLs, their like or dislike of lamps
depends on if they think the lamps are CFLs or filament, and not if
the lamps are actually CFL or filament lamps.
