I think it muddies the water to say that a.a() and a.a are the same thing--obviously they are not. In the common case, the first is a method, and the second is a variable. Yes, you can do silly stuff, such that this rule will not hold, but in general it does. Or am I wrong? Regards, Jordan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
