Eppur si sugat indeed (I can't correct the syntax but
at least I get the sentiment :-)

I think one of the things OO did right was selling the
technology to _management_. Sometimes quite
shamelessly  so. Maybe Erlang (or COPLs) should too.

My encounter with Java the language left me
unimpressed. What _is_ impressive is the community and
the tools used.

Best,
Thomas
