-   Declaring class members or methods as static, makes them callable
-   from outside the object context. A member or method declared
-   with static can not be accessed with a variable that is an instance
-   of the object and cannot be re-defined in an extending class.
+   Declaring class members or methods as static makes them accessible
+   without needing an instantiation of the class. A member declared as
+   static can not be accessed with an instantiated class object (though
+   a static method can). Static members and methods cannot be re-defined
+   in subclasses.
