Thanks Cortlandt I can feel I'm being understood :)

I don't think either that OO systems are bad languages, every language 
needs some tradeoff : that can be performances and more lowlevel control 
against safety (like C).

IMHO a bad language is one that have something users complain about but 
that can't be justified by saying "but this bring that to you, and it's 
nice".
