Rodney.....

I'm not interested in starting a language war. And I'm a huge fan of both
smalltalk and Rev, as I imagine almost everyone here knows by now.

But your opinion about Smalltalk is so wrong based on *my* experience that I
can't let it stand. Let's just say our experiences differ. I've built much
larger systems in Smalltalk than I've bulit in Rev. By far. I just want Greg
to know that there's more than one viewpoint on the subject.

The main problem, in my view, is that Smalltalk environments are
pretty much unlike anything else you will encounter on your computer.
Yes, you can learn programming concepts. But, you will then likely
end up learning another language afterward to produce usable
software. Unfortunate, but that is the current state of the art. As
Smalltalk has been around for a long time, that is unlikely to change
anytime in the near future.
