Hope your experiments went well.  Not sure exactly which question
you're asking, but:

Once you have a list with elements, you can get to an element
in the "normal" way like a[0].  This is really using a method
of the list object too, but its more like a function overload
where [] is a sort of operator.  (Sorry, I'm not a "language
lawyer" so that is not the best explanation :-)

Or:  yeah, you can call a Bob method on an element of a:
a[0].Bobmethod1('somethingOrOther')
