Well... perhaps it's a question of timing...
I'm trying to keep up with some New Year resolutions:

And therefore learning a little language named Lua:

The catch is that I have been doing OOP for well over a decade now, so me first Lua perversion is to build an OO system of sort:

Ironically enough, Xah Lee's post spelled out quite incisively all the things I was attempting to do in Lua, but from the opposite point of view. Therefore my sincere enjoyment of his post :)
Even though Mr Lee seems to have quite a reputation in some circles, I have to admit I enjoyed reading some of his, er, more convoluted essays as well.
Plus, a man which such cinematographic tastes [1] cannot be entirely bad :P
