Tom,

Please send me a copy of the code.
Are the problems/changes you made succinct enough
to be included in the Javadoc?

One of the things my students and I discussed this last
semester is the following:

In using the Navigator class, even if you do a good job of calibrating
the class, there are always mechanical and environmental
issues that cause positional uncertainty.
It seems like it would be nice to include in the Navigator 
some known positional offset--so for example, if you know that every few
feet your car drifts left, you might be able to calculate the drift
using a filter algorithm, and feed the result to the Navigator to
approximately correct the actual position.

What do you think?
Also, I'm not suggesting you do this, mind you, I'm just interested in
what you think about it.
