Sort of unrelated, but Ksyrup's story reminded me of this...

My company is spread of 3, used to be 4, buildings in downtown.

At one point I was in the oldest of the 4 buildings, and the bathrooms were in the hallways, not within the office suites. For that reason, they had motion sensor lights.

The timer was for about 5 mins I think. At normally, throughout the day, it wasn't a problem. As soon as you opened the door, lights go on, plus the normal amount of traffic.

But if you sat in the far stall at the right time of day...you'd be in there, and have the lights go out. The position of the light, the only way to have it kick back on was to wave your arms above the stall walls.
