LOL! Point out that a Object Oriented Design can be implemented wtih a varied toolset, and that RPG is a proto-OO language anyway, where programmers *describe* complex things like screens or reports, and even some processing. But also provides relatively good detail orientation.
Also point out that RPG is very tightly coupled to the very obejct-oriented DB2 system underneath the covers, and inherits some OO features from that as well.
