I prefer light text on a dark background.  Especially at night, when the 
screen otherwise becomes glaringly bright.  It also reduces flicker on 
slow-refresh monitors.

And as for the letter-thinning you experience with white text -- that's 
exactly what I perceive with white text!  I think it is an effect of 
slight lack of focus. with a bright background it eaats into the letter 
shapes, but if the shapes become a little blurry they are still quie 
readable.

I son't understand how the opposite effect which you report arises.
