Now what is going on here? I've been on this list for quite some time now and over all of Steves very frequent posts this is the first thread that I recall in which he sort of snapped. All of the other times he managed insults with admirable grace (How's that for fan-mail? ;)). And his tone is usually much milder than that of most other regulars here (all of whom are very friendly albeit the concise, technical manner of communication, sprinkled of course with the occasional sarcastic remark). Steve, you might want to consider becoming more rude in your communication style; that way you don't get flamed for that *one time* you actually loose your cool. ;) Rhetorical closing-questions: Do people start flame wars like this so easily in the real world as well? Why do internet-discussions tend to burst into all-out battles so quickly? Why do people on the net tend to forget that a 1--10 scale actually contains 2--9? *sigh* /W -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
