It is a case where people provide an object that implements a particular
interface that the alarm object will call for certain events. The event
methods are "alarmTriggered" and "alarmStopped" currently. The alarm needs
to have a well defined method name to call and the interface class that the
objects need to inherit contains a default implementation of the target
methods that get overridden by the implementing object, if needed. The
programmer would not be expected to call "alarmStopped" directlly, but will
be fielding the calls from the alarm object.
