junk


My C program is getting bigger.  

A while ago it got constructors and destructors.  Now it has exception
handling too.  I'm sure these are a very wonderful features that fix all
problems known to man, but keep in mind i'm just a stupid C programmer.

I now have a kilobyte of *data* in my program.  I don't understand this.
