Nonsense. Poor English is poor English whether you're writing short one- line comments or three hundred page manuals. store = make_store() x = get_stuff(store) # Get the stuff what was brought at the store. Not that I would consider S & W the best source for good grammar or style. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
