Hey everyone,

Hope you had a good 4th, even if you didn't celebrate anything in particular :-)

I was reading this at ZDNet, on C#

This point got my attention a little: "Microsoft has always thought the primary use of OO programming was code reuse, which is totally wrong. If you are using OO for code reuse, you are probably using it wrong."

The author then "Talk backed" to his own article with this: "If code reuse is your primary objective then I suggest you look into cut and paste rather than an object oriented solution."

Errrr, that last part doesn't sound right to me for some reason. Wouldn't that be the opposite of reuse?
