rr started it with a fairly impressive piece of trolling but as
you've asked so politely I will happily oblige.
I honestly don't understand why you haven't kill-filed him yet. I can
understand people wanting to respond to jmf to prevent newbies and the
Unicode-ignorant from thinking the FSR is not a good thing (or
fundamentally wrong), although I've killfiled him as well. [1] But
nobody will confuse rr's posts with something of value (their only
possible use can be to populate
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logical_fallacies and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem). There's nobody to protect
from rr-induced misconceptions. [http://xkcd.com/386/]
My life lurking and learning on Python-list has been dramatically
improved since I began to instantiate filters, I highly recommend it.
Cheers,
Jason
[1] Seen one and you've seen them all, and I'm no unicode expert.
The difference between our most illustrious resident unicode expert and
rr is that the former has only said anything of use once, whereas the
latter does know about tkinter/IDLE. rr doesn't show up that often, the
MIRUC has been spewing his mistruths for nearly two years and IMHO
should have been booted into touch a long time ago.
