Thanks.

Ok... I got a chuckle from that.. :)
Not as funny but a little goofy.. I suggest...
- Visit another hospital X Ray room for a lighting example.
- What's wrong with a dimmer? Let the patients adjust their own light.
- Bright enough so people can see the warning labels on the X ray machine.
- Modern X-ray equipment is sensitive to room light? Read the manual.
- Bright enough so as not to have accidents and lawsuits.
- Light perception decreases with age.. So its gotta be bright enough for them too.
