I've played with it, but that's about it. I spent some time this
morning reading up on OCaml,  my gut reaction is it feels like Python
meets Lisp, but for me obscure languages are much more hobby
programming than business. Pretty much everything I do for a living
(Web development) ends up being in Ruby, Perl, or Java.

The Smalltalk I have is Cincom VisualWorks Smalltalk. I like it but I
think to use Seaside I'll need to download a Squeak. I'm curious about
this stuff, but the tool-centric nature of Smalltalks throws me for a
loop, as I'm much more a text editor guy.
