Steve- 
	don't keep us in stitches, plagued by severe curiousity until
we can find the reference- Why *-IS-* reading slower on CRTs?  You mentioned
image quality improved the CRT viewing, but what is it about VDTs that
is so bad?  I've noticed that reading black on white on a CRT is easier 
for me- was this tried in the study???     (meaning, I think this is a
great topic - if you remember/have the ref handy, could you post the 
conclusions??)
