That is a false claim. You asserted a causal relationship between Java and the content of the GoF book that does not exist without time travel.

Sure buddy. You know so much about me...

OMG. You got me. I'm so, so sorry you caught me spreading lies about your precious programming language (or your favorite book, I don't know what you're trying to protect more). Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the diligent work of protecting the truth and keeping this place free of disinformation. Please send me a DM with your mailing address and I'll send you a medal, shipping cost included.

I should have checked your comment history first before making assumptions. Please accept my apologies if I sounded patronizing. Shouldn't be an excuse for my tone, in my defense I could say: "I said 'probably'". Still disagree with you overly correcting me since I firmly believe the overall notion of my original comment is correct. Thus I won't remove my snarky, sarcastic paragraph above.
