The "plastic" metaphor is really good!
I was introduced to Smalltalk by someone describing it as "you install it
and then you change the Smalltalk installation until it has the
functionality you wish."
What i love most about Pharo is the evolving documentation ("A comment per
day", Pharocasts, Second Volume of PBE, blog of Mariano Martinez Peck)!
"More class comments" (more method comments?!) should be the first point in
the ActionsInPharoOneDotFour document :)
I cannot resist to add this Andy Warhol quote: "I love Los Angeles. I love
Hollywood. They're beautiful. Everybody's plastic, but I love plastic. I
want to be plastic."
