Before I go looking stupid in front of folks I don't know, I prefer to 
first look stupid in front of people I do :-)

So - what's up with this thing extending OBJECT?!  The compiler doesn't 
track that really well!  I just noticed because I coded some stuff I 
knew should throw exceptions - expecting the compiler to tell me exactly 
what it was I needed to catch (I know, I know - I was feeling lazy) ... 
and - it *didn't*!  I don't think I like that :-/  I suppose this is a 
prime example of why you familiarize yourself with the Javadocs before 
using a class ... or keep the javadoc up while you code even ...

Dare I post to commons-dev?  That seems like ... a "really big thing" - 
am I wrong?  I'm hoping someone can set me straight.  I know some of you 
guys follow the commons stuff ... very rigorously.  ... why OBJECT? 
 Exception wasn't good enough for them?  ... I just don't get it.

Thanks for being my shining light!  (D'oh!  Hope that's not a train coming!)

(It just *feels* so *wrong*!)
