Ja, that's what I was trying to say in a long, convoluted, burning-the-candle-at-both-ends type of way :)
lol ... I often have the same problem ... then Richard Lynch comes along and explains 'whatever' in a way that the rest of the world does understand :-)
Surely he didn't explain OOP to you... he's anti OOP :) Cheers, Rob.
You're right. I just started reading this list again after a 1.5 year break, and I still remember some of the great discussions with Richard and others about OOP. Great times :) -- Ray Hauge www.primateapplications.com
