We've had three long years of this.
Bryce hates an ill-defined thing he calls "OO".
Bryce likes XBase and procedural languages of that ilk.
So far, so good, so what?
The problem is that Bryce thinks that everyone else wants to hear how inferior, overhyped, mis-sold, bloated, verbose, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, OO is by comparison to procedural methods. (Actually, to be perfectly accurate, Bryce invented something called "P/R", where the R is for "Relational", as if procedural programs talked to no other kind of database and OO programs talked to anything but). He persistently trolls comp.object as if the denizens of that newsgroup have some kind of responsibility to "prOOve" that the aforementioned ill-defined (and clearly ill-understood by Bryce) "OO" is better than his precious "P/R" and "TOP" (Table-Oriented-Programming) methods.
And he thinks they want to hear it again, and again, and again, and again.
He won't stop. It's not enough for anyone to say "I don't *care* what you use, Bryce, I don't WANT to program procedurally".
And that, coupled with the fact that he's *astoundingly* resistant to the cluestick on any subject he gets involved with, is why he receives the reaction from people like CRC that he does.
Don't be thinking this came out of the blue, because it didn't.
