Just finished reading bs's book (which is definitely not bs) and enjoyed it 
very much. I have one question, though: since classes are essentially structs,
and structs can have member functions and private/public parts, why bother 
creating separate classes at all? Why not just extend the struct syntax
with the things you've got for classes - derivation, etc.?
