Nevin,
Don't feel alone, because I feel the same way.
I think we also feel similarly about other issues ;-) I just read the paper Ned pointed out about the generalized null object pattern (http://www.smalltalkchronicles.net/edition2-1/null_object_pat

If it hasn't been mentioned already (having trouble keeping up with this thread), it should be pointed out that Dolphin has implemented this concept for a long time...they call it a DeafObject.
