Can anyone with advanced template-fu show me to an adaptation of remove_copy_if to be copy_if ?

I do realize you just have to negate the predicate parameter of remove_copy_if.

I would prefer to use a function that does that automatically, since the code would be easier for my co-workers to follow.

thanks pj
