Overloading '!'

[Derek Parnell]

What is the rationale for not allowing the '!' operator to be overloaded?

I ask because I had developed a Bool class but I can't use it in place of
'bool' in cases where the syntax is ...

  if (! mybool ) ...

I can overload the '~' operator but that is not as natural for boolean
thinking as that operation is more suited to arithmetical functionality.
