* ${user} how are you?" which can be evaluated lazily. Advanced users can
* iterate over the text and values to perform special processing, such as for
* performing SQL operations, the values can be substituted for ? and the
* actual value objects can be bound to a JDBC statement. The lovely name of
* this class was suggested by Jules Gosnell and was such a good idea, I
* couldn't resist :)
