Hi Ross,
Another strategy to look at might be to use MessageSends.
These combine a receiver, a selector, and optional arguments; when you
send them #value they do:
receiver perform: selector withArguments: arguments
I converted my Connectors from using Blocks to using MessageSends
because I found that blocks had a number of problems, including not
being serializable easily.
