used to C++ -- I couldn't seem to copy/paste from the console window, so I
had to manually copy what was there. I do in fact use

a = Item("testing")

I've looked over the rest of the code, and it appears to be accurate (but my
eyes are tired). Just to see what would happen, I tried

a = new Item("testing")
print(a)                             --prints 'nil', as I expected it would

I had wondered if this issue had something to do with a bad or improperly
set metatable, and I'm glad to have some confirmation, but I'm too much of a
lua newb to know how to diagnose and correct it. Do you have any other ideas
on how to solve this? Google found some other people with the same issue,
but no solutions, so I was hopeful that someone on the mailing list might
have seen it before.
