Hi All

Only a few points about this item:

1. It seemed overly verbose. Meyers has something similar spread over 2
items IIRC and they're quite short.

2. What about the address-of-operators that Meyer's mentions? (Some of you
will remember this is one of my interview questions).

3. I seem to remember the implication that inheriting virtually was going to
enforced. Never materialised....

Like the virtual destructor argument, this is a subject I'm quite keen on. I
use boost::noncopyable or my own equivalent all over the place!

Regards
Paul

Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott will be sorely missed.
