Maybe I'm not doing the simplest thing, maybe I am over-engineering for the future change that may come or not. Maybe the domain model is not fleshed out... I feel though having an understanding of other modeling techniques/languages helps. Eric Evans touches on this in side-effect free functions which help reduce the conceptual complexity and increase the expresiveness of your code. I wrote a rambling blog entry at http://80points.blogspot.com/2009/03/are-you-oo-bigot-time-for-different.html that may explain this a little better Cool story…
