"There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." Oscar Wilde
Smalltalk was on the verge of being forgotten. Now, people talk about it. Some may be turned off, I have no doubt. Some are curious; some are intrigued, enough to actually try Pharo (Smalltalk). How do I know this? Because they've told me directly! They've told me that they had never heard of Smalltalk (speaking to Norbert's point), and that they will take a serious look at it. Am I doing something wrong? Maybe, but the results would suggest otherwise. Let's suppose I am doing something wrong. What can I do about it? This is my style of writing; it reflects who I am, like it or not. Am I supposed to change who I am? Frankly, I cannot change my style. It's just not gonna happen. The only alternative is for me to stop doing what I'm doing. Well, may I should, anyway. It's been a long campaign and I'm very tired. Marketing Smalltalk is bloody hard work. Perhaps one of you can take over? -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
