Is your concern one of?

   1. Speed

   2. Bloat

   3. Excess burden on the programmer

   4. Required knowledge of OO to complete simple scripts

If it's any or all of these, I'm *with you*. I think OO should be
transparent, under the hood, you don't have to know it's there. See RFC
159 and RFC 73 for fairly good explanations of this.

But if you've got other concerns, I'd love to hear them (honestly).
