+  // = TITLE
+  //     Blob is intended to provide application API to
+  //     classes that wish to do network i/o at a very
+  //     high level of abstraction.
+  //
+  // = This class provides the ability to retrieve data from
+  //   the network, of specified length and offset, and potentially
+  //   use any protocol "under the hood" to do so. It currently
+  //   uses HTTP. See Blob_Handler also.
