You know how modules separate globals, right?  That is, what you
write in one module doesn't affect the names in another module.
What classes (and hence OO) give you is a way of saying, "I'd
like something a bit like a module, but I'd like to make several
of them, and not have them interfere with each other."  That is
the big intuition about objects, the rest is just details.
