Preventing Suicides?

You're right! Can't see how the heck it's supposed to work, though. :-/

Seems the Blue LED Floodlights are meant to have a calming effect.

"Minimise Energy, a company specialising in the production of blue LED
floodlights for public spaces, describe the effect in a press release:
"Research has shown that blue light can induce calm, and as a colour
often associated with authority, particularly the police, blue light in
public places is different enough from the norm to encourage people to
rethink before committing unwanted behaviour.

"The company distributed their blue lights to Network Rail and have been
following the trials intently. According to head of UK sales at Minimise
Energy Sam Stageman, "the initial trial has given satisfactory results to
promote further opportunities so I think it is very client-dependent on
how far they want to roll it out to a major premise or areas of
particular concern. Following the success of that, further product is
being provided for additional stations."

Sounds like a load of old ********.
