Another question before I call it a night- under LegOS 0.1.6, light-sensor
values were restricted to the range 0-100. Under 0.1.7, I'm now getting a
max value (pointed straight at a light bulb) of about 263, or once even
272. 255 would make sense to me, but 272 seems odd. Similarly, in passive
mode, the lowest reading I can get is roughly 220, even when pressed
against an opaque, unreflective, black surface.  Am I doing something
wrong, or is this an 0.1.7 bug or a feature?
Thanks,
Luis
