Aside: your ivars shouldn't start with an underscore - Apple reserves

Interesting - I was unaware of that convention. Dietmar Planitzer
provides something of an alternative view here:

It can be summarised as: if your ivars clash with Apple's, the
compiler will barf anyway...
Or you could use $ instead of _. $ works just fine in identifiers,
even if it does make your program look like it's written in Perl (spit).
Not that I do that myself; I tend just to name my instance variables
without prefixes.
Kind regards,
Alastair.
