C++?!?!  The COBOL of the Nineties (with apologies to COBOL)?  The most
God-awful kludge of a language in the history of Western civilization?  The
most complicated, un-object-oriented OOL?  A language with no standard,
conflicting goals, and inconsistent implementations?  A language where Herb
Schildt is just as likely to be right about a particular feature as anyone?

Question:  How object-oriented is a language that still relies on #include
files?
