    Never mind 'whatever happened to the Object-Oriented Paradigm?'... it is fascinating to see the lass take a good, solid whack at explaining the
    reasons for things being as they are and include the fact that there might
    be situations for which the hammer of COBOL is good for the nail of
    certain business-oriented solutions.
