And while we're correcting things, there's no such thing as a "static method" in Objective-C. There are class methods. The use of "static" in this way is a C++-ism. Beyond just being a matter of conventional terminology of the language community, Objective-C class methods are just as dynamic as instance methods. So the adjective "static" is inapplicable.
