Yikes, calm down. Petite was just being humorous (as usual), it's
nothing personal. Not all of us are full-time fans of the OOP model
(though plenty are). Due to Lua's very nature you'll find a much
larger number of OOP refugees here than on most other language mailing
lists.

If you can't handle someone having a different viewpoint to you, then
yes, it's wise to make a new list for yourself. Otherwise, just let it
pass... there's no need for heated posts with language like this.
