That would seem very reasonable... I always thought Objective C message
sends looked really weird, until I seriously investigated Smalltalk and
realized that Obj-C was trying to emulate Smalltalk-style message sends.
I also like the Obj-C's "id" thing.

I find it sad that C++ has come to dominate, when Objective-C isn't much
used beyond the NextStep/MacOS world.
