Incandescent bulbs to be phased out in UK.. 100watts to be gone in next 3 weeks

On a tangent, the LED in my digicam bothers me.

Also, here's a post by someone RE: LED Macbook Pro:

LED Display hurts eyes!

QUOTE:
it's strange, my eyes really start to really hurt after a few minutes
with my the new LED Macbook Pro. I'm assuming it has to do with the
method used to dim the display. It's like knives in my sockets...!
headache inducing..

The other odd thing is after using the display for while, everything
has a sort of rose colored tint to it when I look around the room and
out the window. The display itself is really a lot more yellow than a
normal LCD. I tried calibrating it with an Eye-One display2 but it's
the same thing. I know these displays use blue LED with a yellow
coating.. To my eyes something is really unnatural about the spectrum
it produces.

The display actually cases the most eye strain when I lower the
brightness a few clicks. It's almost as if there is a strange refresh
frequency or something. It reminds me of when I look at a DLP
television- those things drive me crazy too..

[One of his respondents posts:]
I bought brand new macbook pro 2.5 MHz in 2008.06.27 and I have the
same problem. After 30 minutes of work with the macbook pro, my eyes
hurt like well. It's going back to the store.
It's time to say "I DID NOT SWITCH TO MAC!"

Hmmm, well maybe LED backlit computer monitors aren't going to be
as good as I had hoped... hurting eyes isn't really a symptom
I associate with ES, however...

Double damn. I was really excited when I started to see the first
reasonably priced LED monitors become available. Perhaps this is
specific to the Macbook Pro?

"Eyes Hurting" could be eyestrain due to the resolution, or some
other non-ES reaction (?). Apple now has an LED backlit cinema
display, although Apple monitors tend to have inadequately
shielded video cables (and combining the video signal with
the power in the same cable? that must be a no-no...)

I'm actually quite surprised how well I'm doing with florescent
backlit LCD monitors these days -- I used to avoid these, but
last year I replaced every CRT television and computer monitor
I was using with with these.

Thank you for all this great information. I do believe we would not need all this nutritional manipulation and intervention if the manmade electromagnetic load in our environment today was not as high.
 
In relation to LED lighting, I wonder if using the a computer in a different environment, that one suspects is EMF cleaner might make a difference. Also using the wireless component of the laptop puts out  a strong ambient electromagnetic/RF field. It much more benign to plug the computer into awired moden. I believe if anyone suspects they are electro sensitive it issmart to start  investing in meters of different frequencies and low power densities to better determine what thresholds and frequencies might be a problem. I appreciate not all EMF emissions from computers can be measured, because the frequencies are so varied. However, alot can be measured with many retail devices.

Hi Everybody,
Is there anyone who has won their disability, received back pay and has also been on government aid- that would speak with me?
 
If there is, please email my personal address [hidden email] and we can trade numbers and talk. If it is long distance I will call you.


 
Thanks!
Elizabeth
