Oy! Logic is relevant ... let me explain. Let this be a gentle reminder to all, the primary hazard of generosity is that the recipient will lack a corresponding sense of appreciation. I've heard others around here say that they will risk feeding a troll on the off chance that they may actually enlighten someone. Further investigation (http://lazaridis.com/core/project/email) suggests that it is the Python community that is at fault. There is a scepter haunting the python-list. Ilias, we misjudged you and mistook your hyper efficiency and superior cognitive capacity for rudeness. As I reflect upon this exchange I now see the inefficient absence of terseness and lack of condescending ridicule. I call forth on all Pythoners to adopt your style of thought, learn to spell Nietzsche, put aside their personal consideration and accept their subservience to the common good (as defined by Ilias) and the nubile newbie. Think of what we could acheive. We could be just like gwbasic! As hip and modern as the Kondrad Zuse's Z3. Pythoner's Unite! Ilias, I ceed. You are a superman in the most misinterpreted sense of the word. I invoke Gershwin's law and end this thread. May I bear your children?
