I won't dignify your insulting twaddle and random ad-hominem verbiage with any more responses after this one. Something with actual logical argumentation to rebut may be another matter of course. One more GG issue: those stupid star ratings. So potentially prejudicial. So easy to game, as evidenced by your managing to somehow vote 82 times(!) against one of my posts in a matter of minutes. So far I've found a less-impressive method to game them -- it's not hard to get throwaway accounts elsewhere, send yourself there a gmail invite, and create many GG accounts. Handy to get around their onerous posting limits. Handy for stuffing the star-vote ballot boxes with multiple votes, too, but there's no way I can see to generate 82 of them that fast by that method, and that much logging in and out in that short a time using different accounts but from just one IP address is sure to come up on Google's radar somehow, with unpredictable but probably bad results. How did you do it? I'm guessing they stop the link for voting appearing as a usable link on the page for a) your own posts and b) the ones you've voted for, but the link's URL still works, so if you use a script to keep fetching the appropriate URL ... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
