Thanks Bob, I was not aware of this. The sleeves I bought are 3M but I can't find them now on the net. Of course these full spectrum bulbs are bright :) I did find these sleeves and for antiglare the lady said the smoke ones, whatcha think? http://dyna-brite.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=SEC I'm wondering if my current sleeves has these lines on them as I didn't see any noticeable lines..but I wasn't particularly looking either :) Rudy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Keyboard Cowboy" <KBCowboy@xxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, March 31, 2008 6:04 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Odd Tech Question - Reducing Glare!! > Remember too that most of the sleeves for fluorescent lights have lines on > them > that block light.
