HUH??? The things you learn round here! I been meaning to Google this everyday when I get to work, but my short term meaning is shot. Now I gotta remember to google for the other type so I can take hot showers again.

He's in the Brazos area. I'm in DFW. I used to swim every day over in the KISD natatorium, and I'm pretty sure I've seen your truck before... I'm over in the Saginaw area, if you know where that is...


also-- I said wrong about the detectors. I described a photo-electric one. (Makes more sense). Ionization works like this: (so I don't have to type, this is copy/pasted)

Ionization detectors have an ionization chamber and a source of ionizing radiation. The source of ionizing radiation is a minute quantity of americium-241 (perhaps 1/5000th of a gram), which is a source of alpha particles (helium nuclei). The ionization chamber consists of two plates separated by about a centimeter. The battery applies a voltage to the plates, charging one plate positive and the other plate negative. Alpha particles constantly released by the americium knock electrons off of the atoms in the air, ionizing the oxygen and nitrogen atoms in the chamber. The positively-charged oxygen and nitrogen atoms are attracted to the negative plate and the electrons are attracted to the positive plate, generating a small, continuous electric current. When smoke enters the ionization chamber, the smoke particles attach to the ions and neutralize them, so they do not reach the plate. The drop in current between the plates triggers the alarm.

sound complicated??? Check out this site for a cheap ion one.
