Actually that's just one possible answer. Whether it's _the_ answer is obviously again a matter of opinion, and as usual we differ. Doug, please stop making an idiot of yourself by offering simplistic "corrections" to every one of my posts. I realize you don't like me, and that's too bad, but that isn't a good reason to be rude when I try to be helpful to someone or to offer my opinion on some issue. It's downright immature. A better alternative would simply be to provide your own response to the OP, instead of appearing to be trying to correct me, and leave it to others to figure out for themselves which piece of advice they prefer. Given that I'm hardly a troll around here, and do find ways of providing useful advice from time to time, I believe I deserve the courtesy of a bit of respect. (I'd have emailed Doug about this many a time, but it doesn't appear he uses a real email address here so I'm forced to respond in a public forum. Sorry for the waste of bandwidth, and regardless of the response I won't bring it up again.) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
