That's hilarious. How someone could possibly become an OO fanatic from
working in C++ I have no idea... two qoutes for perspective:

"I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have
C++ in mind."
                - Alan Kay (Inventor of Smalltalk)

"The main problem for the C++ community today is to use Standard C++ in
the way it was
 intended rather than as a glorified C or a poor man's Smalltalk."
                - Bjarne Stroustrup (inventor of C++)
