in my case it is because i have a class that gets some dynamically created 
methods based on whether or not certain criteria are met. if it is then these 
methods need to be non-overridable, if not then the methods defined in the 
subclasses can be used. i now that there's surly other ways to deal with 
this, but it occured to me the have methods that can't be overrided was one 
way to do it and i was wondering if it could be done....and sure enough!

well, if i think of something succinct (sp?) then i will let the world know 
for your sake  ;-)
