IE. You accessed members with the dot operator whether it was
an object (like D Delphi's objects are heap based / reference

You should have elaborated then. The other guys talked about
the invention of reference types, so I assumed you did as well.
Sorry I've been on pills to prevent premature elaboration. :-)
