And I thought that would slip through unnoticed ;-)

The original suggestion was, aBlock>>apply: aCollection from: start to:  
stop.

Since only collections can know how to do that, aBlock and aCollection had  
to be swapped. Of course your suggestion #from:to:apply: is also a good  
one.

Wrt #join, my favorites are your joinUsing: and useToJoin: this is  
Smalltalk land and people (incl. newbies) use method finder, if not for  
finding #substring.

I use #substring as an exmple for the utility of method finder because in  
other languages is takes one or two arguments and so in Smalltalk *must*  
have another name.
