More sloppy thinking on my part... Your meaning is clear to
me now.

Would you mind fielding a related question?  Is there
any way to associate the ":=" operator with such a
routine?  I have always been puzzled why we can associate
the relational tokens (>,<,=, etc.) to a function... but
not assignment... and never sure it it was really not in
the language or if I was just missinging it.  Anyway, that 
was the real point of my inquiry about controlled types.
A way to associate code with the assignment operator.

thanks.
