Well, if Shivani says that it works for her, then that's good enough
for me. It's a bit silly to believe some "expert opinion" over someone's
first-hand experience.

I suspect the projectors are good because you are further away from
the electronics. Because from a light standpoint, you can certainly
reduce the light-levels on a CRT or LCD monitor to the same level
as a projector will put out.

Have you tried covering an LCD or CRT screen with cardboard, and then
see if you are still sensitive to it? It wouldn't be putting out
*any* light then, but I suspect that you'd still get symptoms from it.
