Pet liturgical peeve #2489432
Buzzing flourescent lights in a church or chapel. Or those other kind of blueish lights like that have in the chapel here. I hate going into a chapel for silent mediation only to be faced with the nerve-racking flicker of flourescent lights (which I can see) or that "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"
that goes on forever. Give me incandescent lights any day. Their color much more approximates candles anyway. They are softer and more "natural." Even if hotter and more expensive. Plus, I don't like blue-tinted liturgies.

Is this important? Not really.
