I have a theory about the effect of artificial light, which runs on an
alternating current power supply (our normal power lines in the US run at
60 Hertz, actually turning all lights run from it on and off 60 times per
second. ) I believe this effect has something to do with an apparent
difference between a PWP's moods and ability to move being better when in
natural daylight, than when under the constantly pulsating rays of indoor
lighting. I am not a scientist, but i do work on electronic devices. I
have also heard that a person working under a single flourescent lamp, as
oppossed to two or more together, which alters the effect to the human
eye, cn have fatigue and mental effects.  These conditions seem to affect
people who do NOT necessarily have any neurological conditions. I cannot
help but believe they could adversely affect PWP's. Does anyone else have
any inside info on this phenomenon?
