I anticipate some criticism for saying this but I'm just speaking from experience, that there comes a point where reusable code crosses over into unusable/incomprehensible.[/quote]

I think I can agree with your point. Re-usable code is great, which is why OOP is so important, but there is a line that gets crossed on occasion when people try to abstract things out too much.
