Coming in to the thread a little late, but, do you feel that OO is infertile and a waste of time for developing, say windowing environments, or a web server? It seems to me that is is a useful disicpline for certian applications. I've always found the Person -> Employee -> SalariedEmployee example to be contrived, but I don't see how one goes about game programming in relational algebra.
