Ack, need to work on my posture :-(
I just got a chance to watch this, and one thing that I found
more unsettling than your posture was your assertion that
destructors and finalizers are "the same thing", in contrast to
Hans-J. Boehm, who asserts that C++ destructors and Java
finalizers "are completely different facilities". I assume that
you've read Boehm's report
http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/2002/HPL-2002-335.html and if
so I'd be interested in why you think he is mistaken, since both
of your statements can't be correct.
