You are an accomplished provocateur. It is true that I joined the variable declaration discussion without the intent of offering or receiving help. I joined it actually to try to make a point that I thought was community spirited - thinking that the visciousness with wihich you were attacking someone suggesting a proposal for an optional feature - even if an iill adivised proposal for and ill advised optional feature (I frankly don't care much about that part of the discussion one way or another) - was unwarranted, and more importantly *unwise* for someone in a postion of community leadership - considering past, recent, and undoubtedly future issues that have and will arise. What don't *you* understand about that?? We all have are own kinds of stupidities, it seems to me. Art -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
