Actually, a better implementation would be: Object>>is: aClassOrSymbol ^ aClassOrSymbol asString = self class name asString
Like this you can even pass the class instead of its name (I presume that printOn: will not change any time soon so we can rely on the fact that we can polymorphically obtain the name of the class via asString).
