Python tries to be simple and pragmatic while not aiming for as heavy-duty applications as Common Lisp. Scheme is more of a research language that's way past its prime. If you like Scheme, you should try Haskell. Python has the motto "practicality beats purity". With Haskell, it's exactly the opposite ;-). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
