I'd suggest that you try and understanding what object serialization with
regard to Smalltalk systems. That's circa 1978. Then ask where you where
when all of that stuff was being discussed and how you missed that critical

get your attitude adjustment, you'd might listen to folks so that you
actually learn something.
