Thanks,

Good grief. You can use Wikipedia but you can't use Google?
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=python+multiple+inheritance

Think of it this way:
Aaron is-a WikipediaUser
Aaron is-a GoogleUser
see, multiple inheritance!
See it this way Aaron is so damb supprised that there is another language
with MI and particularly that it is Python, all order and normal action go
out the window !
Glad you can see the funny side.
Seriously, though, although Python does indeed support multiple inheritance,
I have the impression from comments over the years that it's used a lot less
than in other languages where it is more of a common idiom. Certainly in my
own (not negligible) use of Python, I've very rarely used it for anything
but the occasional mixin class.
I'll leave others to comment on whether this is indeed so and why
it might be :)
