True indeed - sorting my thoughts to be able to write them down in a
coherent way for public consumption really forces me to understand the
stuff pretty deeply.

Hi Sven,
thanks for the feedback.
Keep that kind of stuff coming, it is very helpful.
I'll try to. It just always takes so long to write stuff. But I think you know
that, don't you? :-)
Yes I do, but you also know (it was clear from the article) that you learn a
lot yourself from writing something for public consumption. Most people
underestimate how powerful that is.

Hi Udo,
This is really an excellent article: I enjoyed reading it a lot.
It is well written, has lots of relevant code examples and a nice pace, but
above all it is really interesting.
Thanks a lot.

All,
I just finished a blog entry. It shows how to use Smalltalk blocks as
parsers/translators. E.g. translating a Block
[:customer | (customer joinDate year is: Date today year)]
into an SQL-like String
(YEAR(customers.joinDate) = 2014)
The SQL stuff is just an example - you can create nearly any output.
Check out

Maybe that's old stuff for some of you - but I hope it's interesting for some
at least :-)
Comments and feedback appreciated.
