I think their original background was Smalltalk, which is a very
dynamic language. There is this common idea that 'patterns compensate
for language limitations' but this seems unnecessarily harsh. They
are a way of looking at components of a *design* at a higher-level.
It's a lot easier to do these things in Lua, but they are still useful
tools for thinking.
Would be interesting doing a wiki page and systematically going
through the patterns:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_Patterns#Patterns_by_Type
A quick look indicates that only a few are specific to classic
statically-typed languages.
