Mainly because there IS a conspiracy. It's not grand, by any means, but there IS a strong desire by the status quo to prove either the inferiority and/or the danger of ereading and in ebooks in general. Has been from day one. I won't let that blind me to reasonable research with sensible methodology (should I ever come across any), but I'm also not going start from the position of; "It's got to be bad for people—now if only we could prove how (or make it SOUND like we've proven how)" standpoint that many seem to accept as the "default."

I agree. I also just happen to believe it's not unreasonable to think it might not make a difference one way or another for many peoples sleep. I KNOW it doesn't for mine.
