Identical methods in fact. Earle said that he wanted identical 
implementations with only one piece of source code. That's the first 
part of my post where A and B have an identical definition but are 
completely distinct modules.

This was just to demonstrate that in this implementation, you can change 
something in B without it affecting A. Which it didn't. Class variable 
changes don't affect the other module either.

I'm not sure what other requirements than these Earle had.

best,
Dan
