Don't put words in my mouth. One thing that is worse than the wrong pattern is two different patterns when dealing with the basically the same sort of thing. > that will fail hard once there is more then on of any sensor type.

But, I tend to think that is over-engineering at this point and we could spend time more important things. Doug
