Many of you probably consider me a real jerk. Well, I guess I have been one here. Believe it or not, I'm actually a pretty nice guy in real life. Something about the detachment and (partial) anonymity of being online makes me write things I would never say in person. For that I apologize.
I had two major fights just on this thread, not to mention a couple of "minor" ones. Although I believe I was treated unfairly at times, that was no excuse to resort to insulting replies and "childish name calling," as one person called it. >From this point on, I will try to stay away from any debate about anything controversial here on comp.lang.python. Go ahead, say what you will. Take pot shots if you wish. Maybe I deserve some. But in the end, you will be saying more about yourself than about me. I will not reply. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
