 React attaches event handlers to components using a camelCase naming convention. We attach `onChange` handlers to the two `<input>` elements. Now, as the user enters text into the `<input>` fields, the attached `onChange` callbacks are fired and the `state` of the component is modified. Subsequently, the rendered value of the `input` element will be updated to reflect the current component `state`.
 
+(The astute reader may be surprised that these event handlers work as described, given that the method references are not explicitly bound to `this`. `React.createClass(...)` [automatically binds](/react/docs/interactivity-and-dynamic-uis.html#under-the-hood-autobinding-and-event-delegation) each method to its component instance, obviating the need for explicit binding.)
