Um, what are CATCH and THROW?  Why are they needed?
That should be explained before ever mentioning an
exception.  It appears I have to read half of this
to find out how CATCH and THROW are implemented, but
I still don't know what they're supposed to do by then ...

Are these like setjmp and longjmp in C?
Or, are they like signal?
