Yeah I found that out already; I have schoolwork to do but D is 
really interesting and stuff and argh.
I think one of the things I also like about D so far is the 
community.
Most Java communities, when I asked questions about 
hard/not-before-accomplished tasks, were either completely 
ignored or "LOL GO USE THIS LIBRARY" when I wanted to do it 
myself. I have a feeling it's not going to be like that here, 
with the way all of you cool doods have been replying.

Also, not having headers is totally rad. I never liked headers. 
Having the compiler handle that for you is very nice.

Also also, I've noticed that D supports lax typecasting through 
the "auto" type, oh God I didn't even know that that is wonderful.
