I know there are "black sheep" in some families, and "dark horse candidates". Also yellow-bellied sapsuckers. There's a "black horse" fish in the Mississippi valley (also, quite coincidentally, of the sucker family). Not entirely sure that was the intended connotation. :-) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
