Good one! I forgot about generics. They're used all the time in Java as well when you want to specify the type of some collection (i.e. ArrayList<T>, LinkedList<T>, etc.).

I guess we kind of just take generics for granted. It would probably take me to program in a language that doesn't have generics (like VB6) to really appreciate it.
