This mod struck me as excellent example of design in the spirit
of the credo Donald Norman annunciates in his thought-full book,
*Psychology of Everyday Things*:

That's the only reference to this detector that my LDBASE queries
picked up.  Has anyone seen the filter in action?  Able to share
the output?  (I don't want to tempt it!)  -- tracy
 
PS: I can send a quote from the Norman book to anyone interested.
