I spent the extra money on fluorescent tubes that give off light the
color of an overcast day which is not too warm and not too cool, and
certainly not that gross green of most fluorescent tubes.

I use shop lights and have found that a combination of one "standard"
cool white tube and one GE "kitchen and bath" tube (more red) come pretty
close to house lighting with incandescents.

But incandescents are on their way out ...

Indeed, my living room has a mix of CFL, Led and incandescent light,
if you want to know what color something is you have to go outside.

It may be a moot point anyway, I was born without whatever it is that
regulates color matching and color suitability.
