Re: How Electric Light Changed the Night
Before following the link, my guess is that electric light de-darked stuff. Like closets and hidey holes. And other dark places.
But now i have to go see if I'm right.

They saved the eyes. Try working by candle or fire light.

Re: How Electric Light Changed the Night
Since my eyes aren't what they used to be in my youth, I've been using a Kindle to read at night. Recently I noticed that it's somewhat harder for me to get more profound sleep during the first half of the night. Conversely, about half the time I read a regular book using incandescent light and haven't noticed any disturbed patterns of sleep. Anecdotal? Heck yeah, however this seems to be interesting enough to do some further research. As a side note, for late at night Kindle and tablet reading there was a recent thread about people using transparent yellow filters to slap on the screens of their devices. I'll see if I can find it.
Here's the thread I found:

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.

Re: How Electric Light Changed the Night
I have always been addicted to bright light. It just makes me feel good.
My MIL was one of these people who would sit in the dark, just to save a dime.
I could not stand it! Dim rooms just depress me.
One of my best experiences was demonstrating pysanky for a segment on educational TV.
Those TV lights were awesome (did I mention I'm a light junkie?)
When I shut down the lights at night, I'm asleep within 10 minutes.
Maybe I'm an exception to the rule--if there is a rule.

No wonder CF likes lots of light - look at those gigantic eyes shown in CF's avatar. They are literally half the size of the whole head

Moths, eww, they are so dry and dusty. Personally, I prefer a nice mealworm,
crispy on the outside and juicy in the middle. Yum!
