Object-oriented programming is really not that difficult to learn; I've had
to do so to write VBA code, which is leagues ahead of the old WordBasic code
I had to deal with previously.  And if I can do it...

In VBA, at least, once one learns how to deal with the objects, one can
pretty much code in whatever way is most comfortable.
