He may not know it, but Gary Short really wants dynamic typing. Just look at how C# makes him lie to the compiler....

lie to the compiler... Not

Where's the lie? We've declared variable 'retVal' to be of type 'uint'. If we want to assign a value to 'retVal' we must be able to convert it to type 'uint'. Where's the lie?

Ok, "lie" is wrong. It would have been better to say that we have to yell at the compiler :)

We might think that static-type checking is 'a bad thing' and still understand when the implementation is doing the right thing given that it is a statically-checked language.
(It would help to have some hints about how to format comments on the blogComment page - or a preview.)
Didn't want dynamic checking

Seems like he wanted const but was using enum.
