The knock detector was a fairly straightforward problem to solve with some 
degree of accuracy.  We first measured the x, y, and z readings from the 
accelerometer, waited a fraction of a second, and then measured them again.
At this point, if there was any difference greater than or equal to 4 in the 
two x, y or z readings, we determined that there was sufficient change to 
have detected a knock.  Because we are testing for only the delta of the 
measurements, the board can be in any initial position and still detect knocks.
