We tend to have more control over our display brightness, than our  
room brightness, or at least are more willing to adjust our screen  
brightness, than the room... but whether the final display conditions,  
as opposed to the studio condtions, are a factor in display  
calibration is more debatable; I certainly don't recalibrate all my  
displays when I move to working on images to be displayed in a  
brighter room!
