Uh, how do you figure that?

It's largely modeled around SmallTalk. It's quite a bit more OOP than
most things one runs across. That said, it still pales in comparison to
CLOS.

I don't think I'm a Java "expert", but I ain't bad... I'm more
productive until Ruby/RoR simply because the language doesn't handcuff
me: I spend more time working on the problem than the code.

Granted, I am a SmallTalk and Lisp oldbie from way back (sure wish Ruby
had macros :/ so it seems a much more natural language to me than most
others have.
