	Again, it's not really a good analogy, since you *must* clean up 95%
of what you allocate in Delphi (exceptions being things like interfaces
and ownership) and you don't need to do that for 95% of what you write
in C# (exceptions being things like file handles and DB transactions).


	Really, it's just different there. C# "can't do" what it largely
doesn't need to do.


	The Delphi user's argument has always been that programmers know
better, but the current raging debate about the most basic aspects of
memory management (the whole FreeAndNil jihad) makes me wonder about
that. :)
