These are not 'other' options!? Both cases are already included
in the listing of Mark.
Or is it a typo, did you mean "2 other options:"?

2 other options. Neither of you is crazy. Both of you are crazy. What do they

Thanks for taking the time to explain this Mark. After I thought about it for
awhile I expected that this would be your answer and again I’m very pleased
with how you’ve implemented the behavior feature.

I still have one question though. Given the part of your answer I

along the behavior chain rather than skipping over them and going to
the next object in the ownership chain?

I think of them as private backscripts, available only the object to
which they are attached. If the behavior doesn't catch a messages,
ehaviors.

Thanks Mark. I probably shouldn’
