I hate to be pedantic, in spite of appearances. But as someone who has fought a mostly up-hill battle for dynamic languages for going on 20 years, I have found it important to use the correct terms rather than pejoratives like "weak". "Dynamic" = good _and_ correct, "weak" = bad _and_ incorrect. -- Patrick Logan mailto:patrickdlogan@home.com
