MyList.Remove(aObj as IMyInterface);//will fail because it is not the

Am I missing some fundamental understanding of interface reference?
Why do you think the interface and the object are the same ? They are not.
An interface is just a bunch of method pointers, and an object has instance
data associated with it. Hardly the same thing, I would think ?
