Re: "Why do I respond in threads regarding Moose. "

Don't forget too, that I learn more from heretics than from the brainwashed yes-men.

Re: "And I think that there is a lot of 'bad OO' around."

Back in the early '90,s when all the hype was on OO and the "paradigm shift", I suggested, just to be contrary, an article for Ed Yordon's "American Programmer" on "The Dark Side of OOP". He didn't take it as a joke, and asked me to submit the article.

    Equally, the heretic learns nothing from hanging out with his own kind.

    an article ... on "The Dark Side of OOP"

    That wouldn't be an article, nor even a series. It would take at least a book, and maybe a trilogy :)

    Maybe "Revenge of the Luddi" would be a suitable title for part III.
