Oh what irony

So, after some years of java-programming I am getting used to dynamic, loosely typed languages, walk like a duck, y'know the drill.

Then enters Flex, enters AS3 and you know what? Explicit type declarations all the way (Not mandatory at all, but, you know, the compiler complains and stuff, so you better behave...)

This is not a problem and all, but something about the whole thing just made me smile :).
