So what?  I don't see your point.  Sure, you could probably accomplish
the same result, but at an unreasonable production cost.  And, no matter
how much you insist, C DOES NOT SUPPORT DYNAMIC TYPING.  Period.  The
whole point of having dynamic typing is reusability of code.  And, if
I wanted to reuse the modules you have written, I'd have to use your
interface...what makes you think that I would want to do that!  Sorry,
but your point is dumb.  If you're argueing against using C++, I can 
give you at least two great reasons to use it:

1.  Dynamic Typing is easily and readily available, done the same way
	every time.

2.  If you don't want to use dynamic typing, then DON'T.  C++ doesn't
	force you to do anything, just write C if you want.


So please, tell me your point, and end this useless thread....
