Try telling that to people who swear they can see it. On the other hand could it perhaps be perceived when it's interacting, so to speak, with another light source? I.e., if there are fluorescent lights nearby? I remember when I first started working with computers that my boss said that fluorescent lights were bad when working on a computer because they caused flickering of the computer screen, which in those days were CRT terminals.
