/**
 * A buffer simmilar to StringBuffer that works on string blocks instead
 * of individual characters.  This eliminates excessive array allocation
 * and copying at the expense of removal and substring opperations. This
 * is a greate compromise as usually the only functions called on a
 * StringBuffer are append, length, and toString.
