+<p>Unlike the other containers, there are only two bit storage containers, and 
+choosing when to use each is relatively straightforward.</p>

+<p>One additional option is 
+<tt>std::vector&lt;bool&gt;</tt>: we discourage its use for two reasons 1) the
+implementation in many common compilers (e.g. commonly available versions of 
+GCC) is extremely inefficient and 2) the C++ standards committee is likely to
+deprecate this container and/or change it significantly somehow.  In any case,
+please don't use it.</p>
