well then,

instead of light, why not use touch?   its only a 3x3 board. you know
were you put your blocks, do what I did for project X, and what Steve
copied for C$.  Press until your at a point you know there is or is not
a block.

When it comes to the light sensor; you can make it work in your
basement, but the room lighting on the day will bite you.  trust me.

Brick It Forward was a lot of fun. And work.  I got a lot of positive
replys from people.
