All that ASK does is coerce System.in to a BufferedReader and then uses the
readline method from that class. So the overhead incurred is just that of a
single method call (probably almost negligible). You get a useful
simplification of the code, however (apart from the exception glitch that
Martin Lafaix pointed out, which I have already fixed for the next release...).
