Given that Java seems to do a pretty good job of "cutting the cord" to 
C/C++, was any thought given to fixing the mess of precedence levels in 
C? I haven't seen anything in the documentation that states C precedence 
levels apply, but it seems implied (with the >>> operator at >> level?)

Also -- at the Java BOF, I heard a reference to someone giving 
in on operator overloading.  My "java language env." white paper says 
there is no operator overloading; is this now incorrect?
