LOL. Unwashed masses...depends on where you come from. Java folks are
"unwashed masses" to some groups. Paul Graham comes to mind as someone that
might have that view. :)

Before UML, we had to choose a diagramming style - Rumbaugh, Booch (forget
the other options) in a software engineering class I had. That was pre-Java.
I think it might be possible he's even more revered in the C++ and Smalltalk
camps.

I'm with you...I think anything sold as the solution to all problems gets
too close to the hammer/nail thing...
