	* This Google Sheets script keeps data in the specified column sorted any time
	* the data changes.
	*
	* After much research, there wasn't an easy way to automatically keep a column
	* sorted in Google Sheets, and creating a second sheet to act as a "view" to
	* my primary one in order to achieve that was not an option. Instead, I
	* created a script that watches for when a cell is edited and triggers
	* an auto sort.

	# Class method (a.k.a. static method)
	def self.classification
	'Mammal'
	end


	# Instance constructor
	def initialize(first_name, last_name)

	Here is a list of scopes to use in Sublime Text 2 snippets -

	ActionScript: source.actionscript.2
	AppleScript: source.applescript
	ASP: source.asp
	Batch FIle: source.dosbatch
	C#: source.cs
	C++: source.c++
	Clojure: source.clojure
	CoffeeScript: source.coffee

	If:

	- you add and commit with the wrong email address in git, and
	- your remote has a hook set up to prevent you from pushing with the bad address

	Then you need to amend the author of your commit before push can succeed:

	1. fix your email address in git config:

	$ git config user.name "Your Name"

	// ABOUT
	A simple LESS (http://lesscss.org) snippet based on http://snook.ca/archives/html_and_css/font-size-with-rem
	It doesn't do much but saves you typing things twice, allowing you to use rem as a unit for font-sizes
	and giving a px fallback for IE

	// MIXIN
	.font-size(@font-size: 16){
	@rem: (@font-size / 10);
	font-size: @font-size * 1px;
	font-size: ~"@{rem}rem";
