Right.  OOPLs and OODs.  Clearly these are hymns from the OO Hymnal.  But as
I said, there's nothing on OO itself.

"Object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) are the natural choice for
implementation of an Object-Oriented Design because they directly support
the object notions of classes, inheritance, information hiding, and dynamic
binding."
 
Which part of this was unclear? The phrase "object notions" or the phrase
"information hiding"?

If the previous paragraph didn't sway you, then we're talking different
languages.
