  21.  
  22.    I believe a reasonable solution to the problem of initialization of 
  23.    non-local static data is not to use non-local static data!
  24.  
  25.    Instead of a static data object or static class data member, use a 
  26.    function with a local static object.
  27.  
  28. But this adds the overhead of the function call mechanism to every use 
  29. of the object.
