/* Following the form of the Coffee example, create a hierarchy of StoryCharacter(s) from 
* your favorite movie, dividing them into GoodGuy(s) and BadGuy(s). Create a generator
* for StoryCharacter(s), following the form of CoffeeGenerator.

/* Solution includes, in same package, generics.storyCharacters:
* public class StoryCharacter {
*  	private static long counter = 0;
*  	private final long id = counter++;
*  	public String toString() {
*    		return getClass().getSimpleName() + " " + id;
*  	}
* }
* public class GoodGuy extends StoryCharacter {}
* public class LukeSkywalker extends GoodGuy {}
* public class Yoda extends GoodGuy {}
* public class BadGuy extends StoryCharacter {}
* public class DarthVader extends BadGuy {}
* public class JabbaTheHut extends BadGuy {}
