I kind of agree with you.

I believe that there is a "restrike", but I do not think it is as major as most people say.

There are arguments for both sides. I personally just added some mylar above some spiral cfl's and I can notice a difference, although a small difference. I also just replaced 27 watt spiral cfl's in 3 clamp lights over my 20 gal with a coralife 65 watt and noticed a major difference.

I really think there are a lot of variables, but I would LOVE to observe the scientifc aspect of this. Let the debate begin!
