why is it that my static class members are not accessable by other
non-static class members.  It compiles fine but then gives me an linker
error.

ie.

class Foo {
	private:
		static int red;
	public:
		Foo();
};

Foo::Foo() {
	red=0;
}

this will cause linker error.
Is there anyway to get around this??  WITHOUT moving the data members
out of the class
