Anything beats the shrill noise that smoke detectors make now. I might get one myself.

I read the article and thought "Great, the kids are now going to sit under the smoke detector, crying and yelling for their parents to help them, since they attempted to follow their voices to them." I can just see bodies piled up in hallways or the like as a result of this.
Yes, I'm pessimistic, why do you ask?
