My memories of the previous attempt are coming back now ;-) The above is 
another one of 'em gotchas. If you have more than one process going wild 
you most definitely want to be able to fire off the interrupt handler 
multiple times. Which reminds me of yet another gotcha: "handlerBlock 
copy fixTemps" please or you are for a world of pain ;-)
