    This is an old thread, but going thru my lengthy mail, there it is
    again!  It reminded me of why I don't use fluorescent lighting at my
    benches.  They give me headaches. The frequency of the lighting
    process has that effect on many people. 

    The other reason is that regular, non- full spectrum flourescent is
    known for causing cancer of the nose, It's common among teachers, for
    some reason. but affects all people who work under it for many years. 
    Jewelers included,   

    I use incandescent, and full spectrum ones at that,,  No headaches,
    a great view of the color of stones (fluorescent distorts color of both
    stone, metal and fabrics, if you are using display or packaging
    materials at the bench. 

my second 2cents worth ..
