My mentor, Jack Randall, knows the Taylors fairly well.  He showed me 
several letters from Valerie during the development of the device.  From 
her descriptions, it sounded like it worked pretty damn well.  One thing 
they discovered, however, is that if the POD is on one side of a large 
metalic structure (specifically a shark cage) and the shark is on the 
other, the field is apparently disrupted and the shark is not strngly 
deterred.
