+  The event class provides a simple cross-platform library for capturing and
+  delivering events on DOM elements and other objects.  While this library
+  is based on code from both jQuery and Prototype.js, it includes a number of
+  additional features including support for handler objects and event 
+  delegation.
+
+  Since native events are implemented very unevenly across browsers,
+  SproutCore will convert all native events into a standardized instance of
+  this special event class.  
+  
+  SproutCore events implement the standard W3C event API as well as some 
+  additional helper methods.

+
+    This method will cause the passed handler to be executed whenever a

+    variety of handler types, depending on the kind of support you need.
+    
+    h2. Simple Function Handlers
+    
+      SC.Event.add(anElement, "click", myClickHandler) ;
+      
+    The most basic type of handler you can pass is a function.  This function
+    will be executed everytime an event of the type you specify occurs on the
+    named element.  You can optionally pass an additional context object which
+    will be included on the event in the event.data property.
+    
+    When your handler function is called the, the function's "this" property
+    will point to the element the event occurred on.
+    
+    The click handler for this method must have a method signature like:
+    
+      function(event) { return YES|NO; }
+      
+    h2. Method Invocations
+    
+      SC.Event.add(anElement, "click", myObject, myObject.aMethod) ;
+      
+    Optionally you can specify a target object and a method on the object to 
+    be invoked when the event occurs.  This will invoke the method function
+    with the target object you pass as "this".  The method should have a 
+    signature like:
+    
+      function(event, targetElement) { return YES|NO; }
+      
+    Like function handlers, you can pass an additional context data paramater
+    that will be included on the event in the event.data property.
+      
+    h2. Handler Return Values
+    
+    Both handler functions should return YES if you want the event to 
+    continue to propagate and NO if you want it to stop.  Returning NO will
+    both stop bubbling of the event and will prevent any default action 
+    taken by the browser.  You can also control these two behaviors separately
+    by calling the stopPropagation() or preventDefault() methods on the event
+    itself, returning YES from your method.
+    
+    h2. Limitations
+    
+    Although SproutCore's event implementation is based on jQuery, it is 
+    much simpler in design.  Notably, it does not support namespaced events
+    and you can only pass a single type at a time.
+    
+    If you need more advanced event handling, consider the SC.ClassicResponder 
+    functionality provided by SproutCore or use your favorite DOM library.
