What I mean is that almost every Java developer I met during the last 10 years didn't know what I meant when I said it's a pitty that Java does not have closures. I can't remember anyone who asked anything else in return than "and what are closures?". Having worked some of these years as a consultant I did see places. Almost nobody are those famous 95%. Funny that people get that annoyed. For the older guys that have worked with some other language than Java before the difference f.ex. between Smalltalk developers and Java developers is striking in terms of intellectual reflection, general interest, etc. Probably a good place to be nowadays is the people from the Scala camp.
