Pros and Cons of NIMC:
Pros:
  Very simple design
  Easy to extend/modify
  Object Oriented
Cons:
  Http like connect/close functions cause for a decent size load
  
Known Bugs:
*  If you don't use the logout function, you will be logged in until the server reboots.
    - I'll get around to fixing this one sometime.  Maybe a every 60 cycle check of who has been idle
