It was an example of the point I was making. You can program in an OO way in a procedural language, or program in a procedural way in an OO language. It depends on the programmer's level of experience with OO, and whether he can apply OO concepts to the matter at hand.
Yes way. The dictionary defines a buzzword as "a stylish or trendy word or phrase."
Its hip to be OO now, even though OO originated in the 60s with Alan Kay and the Smalltalk programming language. It didn't catch much fire then, because they didn't have Sun or Microsoft to market OO.
