Another source of flourescent tube lighting energy is a radio or microwave transmitter. I know because I live 3 blocks away from the Prudential Tower (in Boston). The Pru is one of these buildings that in only surpassed by Russian "Fishing" trawlers for the number of antennas on its roof. Every once in a while, (I suspect when they are setting up a new antenna), I notice that my 4 ft. plant light glows enough to navigate the room by. Now, if it were to light up brightly, I would probably run to the kitchen to get the Reynolds-Wrap and wrap myself with it... ;-) --- Wolfgang Rupprecht UUCP: mit-eddie!mgm.mit.edu!wolfgang (or) mirror!mit-mgm!wolfgang ARPA: wolfgang@mgm.mit.edu (IP addr 18.82.0.114)
