    Anyone observing the somewhat ascerbic exchange between Doc Dwarf and
    myself could be forgiven for wondering: "What exactly are they talking
    about?"

    I can't speak for what Doc's point is (apart from repeating several
    times that I am "wrong"... to which my response has to be:"No, I'm not,
    and you are a poopie-head..."), but, speaking for myself entirely, I did
    come across the following site which has a succinct and clear
    explanation of my position:

    https://www.technologyuk.net/computing/software-development/event-driven-programming.shtml

    Please note, in particular, the opening sentence, and the judicious use
    of the word "paradigm"...

    Pete.
