/** DataService stores instances of a given type.
    This is a templated class, designed to be implemented as a
    singleton. For simplicity and naming conventions, specialized classes must
   be constructed. The specialized
    classes must simply:
    1) call the BaseClass constructor with the Name of the service
    2) Support the SingletonHolder templated class.
    This is the primary data service that  the users will interact with either
   through writing scripts or directly
    through the API. It is implemented as a singleton class.
