And mine is invisible except when it's dark. So at twilight if I turn on
my headlights I can only know whether they're high or low by resorting to
my memory. Fortunately I have a fabulous memory and can always recall
precisely whether my lights were on high or low beam at last usage...

Are there any easy cures for this problem? Get a bigger bulb?
