Thank you very much for your explanations, Sam.  I gather (though I haven't
read your last message through yet) that programming by extension is
essentially the mechanics part of OOP, without the data and methods
organization part (which I gather is best expressed in Ada using the package
concept).  I hope I've got that right, since I feel like I've had a major
"oh yeah!" breakthrough.  I never thought of separating the two parts
before, although seeing it written out like that I recognize that I've done
forms of the latter organizing in my non-OO programming.
