I'm not sure if we're going to be using templates much so I'm 
going to include a couple of examples you gave, plus the link 
that Gary posted which is better than anything I could write 
right now. Do you think that's enough?

And I see what you mean with the with statement. It certainly is 
an intriguing concept, and I would love to see something like 
that.
