He, he a great quote indeed. :) Seriously.
The way she formulates it shows she knows very little of it (""this
Smalltalk thing") but she already likes it (which implies she must
already have produced *some* kind of result - people don't tend to like
things before they do) and already feels like saying it (which implies
she feels that she has some kind of grasp of it - people typically don't
make judgements if they suspect there are unknown bad things down the
road).
Well, that was a super-silly analysis of a single sentence. :) But it
mirrors my experience when using Smalltalk to teach OO.
