Green Doctors Offices

I recently had an appointment with the dentist and just wanted to bring up the stark contrast being the dimly lit waiting room with the relatively well lit room in which the dentist cleaned my teeth. The waiting room had high ceilings and not many windows. Brown walls seemed to suck in any light that came from the horrible orange-colored fluorescent light mounted to the ceiling. The magazines everywhere said "Read Me", while the poor lighting slowly made that ever-more difficult. Contrast to the naturally-lit, windowed view from the operating room, where I could see outside and notice the natural beauty of Provo at 11AM. My eyes felt fine (except for the times the dentist shined a high powered light shined over my face). It was much better....
