The questions about inheritance in Ada, and especially the responses
about inheritance being "simulated" in Ada, are interesting.  Those
who are REALLY interested in this issue would do well to consider
whether inheritance (as commonly practiced in OO languages) is
something you ought to want; see the paper by J.P. Rosen in the Nov
1992 issue of Comm of the ACM.
