exercise: leaky #206

A few things maybe to explain:

that you'll still need to put input into program when running valgrind
that to get more detailed report, want to use --leak-check=full

there's also one tricky part about this, which is that if you try to free(peep) before freeing the char* in peep (firstName and lastName), then you get errors of "invalid read".

I imagine most people will be confused by this and not understand why that is (I don't fully understand it, but I have an idea)
