I particularly liked the comment,

   "Squeak is not "based on" smalltalk.. it *is* smalltalk.

   "As such it's going to be a very pure nice object-oriented language . .
."

I hope a few Squeakers more competent than myself will dive in and offer the
folks there some good reasons to give Squeak a whirl.

Good find, Michael.

And it fits into the "Making Squeak more accessible and used - reversing
the trend" thread :)

Have you seen the comments, "look a bit like ruby" :)
