OK, can any newsgroup guru tell me why whenever I post here there's a
distorted "echo" an hour or so later? That didn't used to happen before
this week.

I should have known that reaching for a third example was going to get me
in trouble! Thanks for the correction. Really, it should have been
obvious, given that, as you say, Smalltalk uses methods on its boolean
type (and on blocks evaluating to a boolean?) taking blocks to implement
its control structures.

pseudonymous posting is permitted, then you should not read
comp.lang.java.programmer, murphy, because it is such a forum and you
