On page that page, under the section:

   How do I use it?

the variables x, y, and z are of type:

   boost::observers::Numeric< long >

yet the description says:

   We now have three(3) observables X, Y, and Z.

which is confusing.  Are they observers
(as the type name suggests), or are they observables
(as the descriptions suggests).  Also, the description
uses capital letters, but the code uses small letters.

It would ease the reading if better names were used ;(
