The problem is, for most people, light text on a dark background is a lot more taxing on the eyes than the reverse, and I remember reading the results of a study that indicated people reading light text on a dark background were slower and more likely to make errors. Can't remember the name of the author or even if it was published, but it makes sense to me -white/yellow/green on black makes my eyes water. Mind you, that could just be the memories of days spent in the undergrad computer dungeon.
