Yes, I "discovered" the bug when I did just the sequence of events described
on the web page (I was standing too far back on the platform and started
going backwards, so I got off to avoid running into somebody, still holding
on, and apparently touched the platform again after getting off, initiating
the buggy behavior).  If they want bugs located quickly, they should give
Segways to all of us PPC/CHHU/HPCC/HHC people!

P.S.  I didn't fall or get hurt in any way, and subsequent rides went very
smoothly.  It's a really neat, precise, and easy-to-use device.  Thanks
again, Vern!
