Chill out Alex, it's all good. Mark was channelling a famous scene from "Fawlty Towers", staring Monty Python's own John Cleese, hence it is on- topic, for the sillier definitions of on-topic. After making a German tourist cry with his repeated insensitive comments about World War Two, Basil Fawlty (Cleese) -- who is an obnoxious git at the best of times but is currently suffering from a concussion -- remarks to his staff, "Don't mention the war, I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xnNhzgcWTk -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
