	// summary: A Google-analytics helper, for post-onLoad inclusion of the tracker 
	//
	// description:
	//		A small class object will allows for lazy-loading the Google Analytics API
	//		at any point during a page lifecycle. Most commonly, Google-Analytics is loaded
	//		via a synchronous script tag in the body, which causes `dojo.addOnLoad` to 
	//		stall until the external API has been completely loaded. The Urchin helper
	//		will load the API on the fly, and provide a convenient API to use, wrapping
	//		Analytics for Ajaxy or single page applications.
	//
	//		The class can be instantiated two ways: Programatically, by passing an
	//		`acct:` parameter, or via Markup / dojoType and defining a djConfig 
	//		parameter `urchin:`
	//
	//		IMPORTANT: 
	//		This module will not work simultaneously with the core dojox.analytics 
	//		package. If you need the ability to run Google Analytics AND your own local
	//		analytics system, you MUST include dojox.analytics._base BEFORE dojox.analytics.Urchin
	//
	//	example:
	//	|	// create the tracker programatically:
	//	|	var tracker = new dojox.analytics.Urchin({ acct:"UA-123456-7" });
	//
	//	example: 
	//	|	// define the urchin djConfig option:
	//	|	var djConfig = { urchin: "UA-123456-7" };
	//	|	// and in markup:
	//	|	<div dojoType="dojox.analytics.Urchin"></div>
	//
	// acct: String
	//		your GA urchin tracker account number. 
	acct: dojo.config.urchin,

	// loadInterval: Integer
	//		Time (in ms) to wait before checking for a ready Analytics API
	loadInterval: 420,

		var gaHost = ("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.";

		s.src = gaHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js";

		//		manually if overloading this method.
