Why does Wrapped1 have an operator void* while Wrapped2 has an operator
bool?

The following is awfully strange:
" // I saw this trick in someone else's code once.  I guess it
 // provides proof in case assert is a function instead of a macro.
 using namespace std;"

1. "Proof" of what?
2. assert can never be an ordinary function. It is required to work without
std:: qualification. What are you aiming at here?
