He's a troll, sometimes goes by the name "Ferrous Cranus", and he really isn't worth polluting this thread about. Search python-list archives for superhost.gr (his web site - be aware that he and it are Greek, so some of his error messages and such are non-ASCII) and have a read. Unfortunately he manages to drive a number of people to frustration, which results in bad blood and spiralling unpleasantness, which sometimes spills over into other threads, like this. What we really should do is use multiple processes of conversation, instead of threads. That way, if one goes rogue, it can't affect memory used by other conversations...
