Yeah, I intend to wrap this into a package once I get all the testing and 
major refactors done. First I also have to come up with a proper name, too. 
Sadly there seems to be no famous researchers named Julia in the field, 
whose last name I could have stolen for this. I was thinking Toro or Bull 
after the famous Eleuterio Toro, almost a father like figure in the field, 
but naming it to a Bull does not really reflect the modular and lightweight 
nature of this! Maybe I just be lame and use the current Hydro.jl, tho.
