To relate this back to another thread currently running on your favorite
newsgroup.... After a second I have to think that maybe the drunk
had something. After all, what he wants to maximize is the likelihood
of finding the keys, so the drunk probably had convolved the
location likelihood function with the detection probability. But perhaps
he (or she) forgot to use the proper value of CENTER.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled discussion.

Tom
