unhealthy infatuation with OO that Python promotes

Let me tell you again that Python is a pragmatic multi-paradigm language - it does not have an unhealthy infatuation with OO. As I already pointed out, there are many languages with a stronger OO emphasis: Ruby, Smalltalk and Java to name just a few.

It's early days yet, but I'm sorry to report that you are starting to show some eerie similarities to sundial namely:

• Not providing citations to support your pet theories and strong opinions.
• Re-posting the same flawed technical advice/opinion and home-spun wisdoms, even after they have been shown to be flawed.
• Ignoring (or flatly rejecting without giving any reasons/citations) posts that demonstrate flaws in your posts.
• Failing to read basic Perl documentation.
• Posting at length on topics on which you have limited experience or expertise, such as OO and the perl tr operator.
