I believe it was Carl Jung who said that ideas needed meathooks in the
mind to help us retain/organize our thoughts and many of you have helped
me figure out the right meathooks to use when attempting to grok the
meaning of delegates (yeah, I know...I'm dating myself with the use of
the word "grok").  To be honest I am overwhelmed by the number of
responses to my original post.  Those of you who have written about
observers have helped, as have those of you who have cited callbacks as
examples of functions that resemble delegates.  To all of you, I
appreciate the food for thought--none of you wrote in vain.  Unless of
course, it was Mr. Idiot Savant (grin--just kidding!).

If you have more to say, I'm ready to listen.

Take care,
John
