Mouse, I can understand why cold or rain might drive one into a tent, but why dark? Surely the inside of your tent is the darkest spot in your campsite?

Follow-up question: what would you be doing if it wasn't dark, and might the addition of stronger lighting in your gear allow you to enjoy the same activities during winter months?
