/** 
 * This interface exists to enable stricter type checking
 * for channels. A method argument or instance variable
 * in a consumer object can be declared as only a Takable
 * rather than a Channel, in which case a Java compiler
 * will disallow put operations.
 * 

* Full method descriptions appear in the Channel interface. *
