I don't normally post here but I've been lurking for a long time. That comment is EXACTLY why I love this site - this is the only place I can come for advice without having to suffer through rants and "flames". Great job Admins/Moderators!

I love the look of 5500K, but that may be due to my dorkiness. My brother, a graphic designer, rebels against the 5500K of the CFL's I installed in every fixture, claiming they give a laboratory look. So, I secretly (like Folgers coffee at Tavern on the Green) switched his room bulbs from incandescent to warm CFLs. He didn't even notice for a couple of weeks until I spilled the beans.

It seems to be mostly an emotional issue to most people. I may not have liked 5500K all that much but after I started using it for a while I decided I liked it everywhere and now feel its totally natural.
