I use browsers that either allow me to override the color scheme or per 
default use gray on black (like links in text mode).

If possible I am using a terminal emulation with green (lime) on black 
(as it was used by ancient monitors :-).  In Thunderbird I use black on 
gray - and start cursing when someone sends me an HTML-Mail with 
hard-wired black on white.

The problem is not that I cannot read the text if it is black on white 
but it is definitely stress for my eyes. I only have this problem with 
monitors. Books are something different but I must admit that I prefer 
recycling paper because it is somewhat gray (unless it smells).
