In fairness to BartC, I don't think that's malicious or trolling. I think it
is as pure an example of what Paul Graham calls the Blub Paradox as I've
ever seen.
"Well, PaulGraham has a very (very) low opinion of OO, mostly because he
does a lot of stuff that most people haven't been able to do, and he
says he almost never "resorts" to it. However, more recent posts on LL1
suggest PaulGraham is coming around. He's starting to be less derogatory
to OO (and seems to have done a 180 on continuations). No one, not even
PaulGraham himself, ever said that PaulGraham was immune to the
BlubParadox. ;) "
