Nothing's really changed in the interim.  I think we did adjust the 
angle of the TV slightly and maybe moved the lamp slightly also.  
Haven't gotten around to replacing the shade yet.  Might get a bit of
urgency when snow is on the ground, the sun is out, and all that 
sunlight is reflecting into the window!
