I'm not sure.  I assumed that the name had been changed, since 
TorqueObjectModelTask no longer exists in the latest version of Torque

Yes, but I was wondering what the advantage of these alternative to 
Vector actually was.  I mean I've heard people talk about Vectors 
thread-safety mechanisms not being required.

Anyway, I'm just saying that any code built on torque will require a lot 
of changes, but then again perhaps not so many of us have been building 
on top of torque yet.  I've built about three things that are all going 
to require rewrites (sorted one of them already), and I was interested 
to know what sort of advantage using List was going to give me over 
Vector, when both of them seem to support the same functionality.
