If you allow your heart to be broken by others' opinions, you're setting yourself up for a lot of disappointment IMHO. I personally used C++ for about 90% of my code for 10 years. During that time, I was chugging the C++ Kool-Aid so hard I almost peed myself. I still think that C++ is a beautiful language, but I have also come to think that starting a program with C++ is a premature optimization. I think that very few Python programmers today started with Python. Most of them came to Python for a reason. Regards, Ryan Ginstrom -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
