I know the feeling. I'm still trying to find something with enough 
expressiveness and power. I only stumbled across Modeling a few days ago.

BTW, I know you're a bit "touchy" about the name, but it is an important 
issue. When I was trying to find more info about Modeling, searching on 
the name was useless since it is such a widely used verb!

I was after the kinds of numbers that you provided, thank you. I'll 
experiment with it soon to get a better feel for it. One thing that I'm 
concerned about is the use of very long method and parameter names, like:

qualifier=qualifierWithQualifierFormat('lastName caseInsensitiveLike 
"hu?o"')

My wrists started to hurt as soon as I saw this (I have RSI)!  :-)
