Nearly all my modules are based on some form of encryption, which means I can reuse a lot of OO constructs as is. I did not specify this because the main point of my post was the link to Ovid's tutorial and the link inside it to Damian Conway's ten rules for when to use OO. Having said this, I still prefer to use OO when projects are similiar, as it easier for me to "cut&paste" or reuse code as I can and it is much easier for those I work with to understand and work with OO code - which is why the main point was the Often Overlooked OO Programming Guidelines and Damian Conway's ten rules for when to use OO both of these explain a situational problem (why to use OO) in a much more complete fashion then the small node I wrote in the time I had.
