/**
* \class pointer
*
* Works with \ref thing in providing disk translucency (not transparency, but half-way there).
*
* This is a pointer like object which is really an index into a memory block which must be deferenced
* every time it is accessed. The main advantage of this is that it allows the pointer to remain valid even
* if the base memory block changes place.
*
* Actually, implementation-wise, thing does all this already and this is mainly an adapter.
