There are lots of colors, lots of sound, general descriptions, and the most important is when they lock on to a particular location as the time or Place, they stay in the location long enough for you to get the feeling that you've been there. And impressive is that this is not one of those little sound bite modes we keep going back and forth from one person to the next, the first to the next, and back to the first.
