title: Getters \ setters for dummies
body: <p>I've been trying to get my head around getters and setters and its not sinking in. I've read <a href="http://ejohn.org/blog/javascript-getters-and-setters/" rel="noreferrer">JavaScript Getters and Setters</a> and <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Guide:Creating_New_Objects:Defining_Getters_and_Setters" rel="noreferrer">Defining Getters and Setters</a> and just not getting it.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone clearly state:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>What a getter and setter are meant to do, and </li>
  <li>Give some VERY simple examples?</li>
  </ol>
