Hi Dave,

Here's a revised version of the code:

(module test mzscheme
   (require (lib "class.ss")
            (lib "kw.ss"))

   (define a%
     (class object%
       (super-new)
       (public my-method)

       (define my-method
         (lambda/kw (#:key [a #f] [b #f])
           (list a b)))))

   (define b%
     (class a%
       (super-new)
       (override my-method)

       (define my-method
         (lambda/kw (#:key [c #f] [d #f] #:other-keys+body other)
           (append (super my-method . other) (list c d))))))

   (send (make-object b%) my-method #:a 1 #:b 2 #:c 3 #:d 4))



I added super-new calls to initialize the classes, plus fixed the call to 
super.  SUPER requires the identifier name of the thing you're super-ing.

Best of wishes!
