This defines two alternate names for the class 'ab'. It does not create
instances of the class. To do that you would need to do:

	b = ab()
	c = ab()

"For the same reason, the collective force cannot be legitimately
 employed to foster the love of labor, sobriety, thrift,
 generosity, learning, religious faith; but it can be legitimately
 employed to further the rule of justice, to defend every man's
 rights." -- Frédéric Bastiat (1801-1850)
