Hi Hilaire, I would put it this way:
Smalltalk is to other programming languages as electric cars are to other vehicles. I.e., superior in countless ways, and becoming the favored technology as adoption increases. Within the realm of Smalltalk varieties, Pharo is the sexy, popular leader, just as within the realm of electric cars, Tesla is the sexy, popular leader. Or, "Smalltalk : Electric Cars :: Pharo : Tesla" to put it succinctly. And to continue the metaphor (why not?), this makes Stef "our Elon Musk": Creative, fearless, tireless, and dedicated to a vision that benefits humanity. The only question is, what will Stef send to Mars on a rocket? (How about a rover control system written in Pharo???) -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
