// FITSTimedTable is used to look at FITS tables which have a time column. In
// particular, it peeks ahead, and knows the time of the currentRow and of the
// nextRow.
//
// It is constructed with a pointer to any FITSTabular. Presently, no memory 
// management is imposed to ensure that the pointer remains valid.
