	It does not sound like it works as it should.  Sounds like a bug.

	The non-staff, not belonging to 'staff' should be unable to see
	the exit.  That's how it should work.

	It works as you assumed.

	TXlevel is the 'transmit' on the reality.  Whatever realities are
	in the TXlevel are 'transmitted'.

	RXlevel is the 'receive' on the reality.  Whatever realities are in
	the RXlevel are 'seen'.

	If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly and
	I'll see if I can help you out.  But yes, it definately sounds like
	a bug in the hardcode for this example.
