This comment shows me that you don't understand the difference between names, objects, and variables. May sound like a minor quibble, but there're actually major differences between binding names to objects (which is what python does) and variables (which is what languages like C have). It's very clear Rick does not have an understanding of this either. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
