my first ever kickstarter

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/paulwheaton/farmer-laboratory-light-bulbs-at-30-seconds

I think the video turned out awesome.

It's been about an hour and it is already 23% funded.

Hey Paul, have you ever heard of the experiment where they tested classroom children under fluorescent lighting and incandescent lighting? The children who tested under the incandescents had higher IQ's.

If you have a link to the study that would be great.

I've talked to a guy that worked on a study at University of chicago, but apparently that study has been buried.
