* be used to create an object from but we will be able to access all the
* methods that are stored in it. The methods that are in the "Static Class"
* must also be static. While you can store "Classes" inside the UI project
* we want to set-up for future expansion so we will create a "Class Library"
* to hold all of the "Classes".

* you can right click on the "Solution" in the "Solution Explorer". Then

* (.NET Framework)" and give it a meaningful name. For this Demo it will
* called "Class Library" and hit Ok.

* INFO #2 ---------------------------------------------------------------
*
* You now have a new project in your "Solution" called "ClassLibrary". Go
* ahead and "Delete" the class that it created for you (Class1.cs). Let's
* add our own class. Right click on the "ClassLibrary" project and then,
* "Add > Class". Give this Class a name. For this Demo it will be called
* "StandardMessages". Make it a public static class.

* "StandardMessage" class and create another method.
*

* INFO #12 -------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* Now that all the methods have been moved to the static method and there are
* no "Console" method calls, the "Main" method is free to only worry about it's
* job which is controling the flow of the program. This program also takes a step
* toward "Single Responsablity" by storing anything to do with "Console" method
* calls into one class. So if there is a need to change or add one then we only need
* to go to one place to do so.
