Dave 100% spot on. Talk is cheap, we are out here making things happen correcting nonsensical OO code and making it work in CF. Bottom line CF Works, has is and will continue to do so. We are all delivering applications that users use, we're walking the walk so as we say in good old Blighty, "stick that in your pipe and smoke it" you non-believing elitist nit-wits.
There that feels better!

CFML is thought of as a "toy" language now by that camp. Why would someone who wants to write in an OO environment consider CF at all? For that matter, CF has been thought of as a toy since its inception; everybody who used something else was always happy to disparage CF in favor of (Java/ASP/PHP/Perl/fill-in-the-blank). And, CF has almost always been a better solution than those alternatives. I'm happy to continue playing with CF, as long as it can be used to deliver solutions better, faster, and cheaper than the competition.
