What? I can't mention multiple personalities?;-)

I am still working on that article. If I can find a valid way of
implementing my design patterns in Java I will present those also.
If I do mention Java in a negative way, which I do not expect to do,
it will be in the context of my own lack of ability to implement these
design patterns in that language. I expect that I will try to keep the
overall message positive, focused on design patterns, rather than
dilute the message with language quibbles.

I am now planning to leave any Java implementation(s) as an exercise
for the reader.
