99% of the time an alarm turns out to be false.  Period.  You can't
count security systems who have not been triggered.  They haven't done
anything,  good or bad.  When an alarm is triggered, only one out of
100 times will the cause be a real burglar.

The number of systems in a given area is irrelevant.  The point of
these systems is to dispatch the police.  If 99% of the time police
are dipatched because of something other than the thing the damn
systems were designed to detect, then that's a 99% failure rate.  For
the love of God, how can you people argue with that.
