// Description: 
// The Storage module is a wrapper around the default LocalStorage in JS to
// compress some of the key-values. I'll admit, the goal of this module is a
// little silly, but I'd like to think it makes the code a little cleaner and 
// nicer to work with in the long haul. It might save me only a 20-30 characters
// per file, but that will add up over time.
