in thread OO, inheriting functions from other packages

    Semantics, indeed! It makes a very big difference whether you meant inheritance, or something else. Each approach has different pros and cons, so using one term when you mean another has major ramifications for any answers. I'm not trying to hammer you for making a mistake in terminology -- we all do that now and again -- but it is an important thing to keep in mind.
