   The easiest way is to obtain a copy of Classic Ada (inquiries 
   to SPS@radc-softvax.arpa, or phone (407) 984-3370), which is a 
   preprocessor providing both inheritance and dynamic binding for
   Ada-language systems.  You might also look at the article
   "Simulating Inheritance with Ada" by Eduardo Perez, appearing
   in ACM SIGAda Ada Letters, Vol. VIII, No. 5, Sep/Oct '88, pp. 
   36-46.  Both of the preceding are Smalltalk-oriented.  Another
   product has been developed which is based on the Lisp variant
   known as Flavors, but I don't think it's yet commercially available.
