Dude.... (Americanism for wow, I never thought of it exactly that way)

Are there any articles that elaborate on this (if not, would you consider
one for AdaPower).

Thinking about things in that way gives me a new found respect for Ada's use
of type extensions to deliver OO inheritance, a better angle on how to best
teach Ada standing on one foot and express why use Ada, and why C++ calling
itself strongly typed is a joke and a half.
