I don't like STL because it represents an abandonment of one of C++'s
strengths, the tools for implementing an object oriented design.

STL just isn't OO. It's the creation of algorythms that are not connected
to the data they act upon. That doesn't make STL inherently wrong, but it
does seem out of place in light of the number of design decisions made
to enable OO.
