The crooks will get a real giggle from this just before they bust your windows. 
Nice system, now it annoys the neighbors when someone just gets _close_ to your 
car.  These systems have been around for years.  I come across them when walking
along in DC every once in a while.  I make a point of walking back and forth 
next to the car as often as possible, hoping that the battery will drain faster.

Stand back, my ass.
