// hands consumers a special pointer to it, through which they can access it.
// When the consumers delete the pointer, the reference count goes down,
// and if the reference count hits zero, the factory can throw the object
// away.  If a consumer requests the pointer and the factory has none,
// it can create one on the fly and pass it back.
