Ted: David and I are referring to the source code - not the comments in the 
source. 

Have a look at the WOD file, where the values come from. The clever thing you 
will notice is the lack of code, which is disturbing for most new-to-WebObjects 
people - but look at the superclasses and understand where the data comes from. 
Then I usually have a light-bulb moment.
