I was not calling *ANYONE* who agreed with the PEP "a lapdog", my statement was more specific. I called Chris a "lapdog of" and a "rabbid fanboy" -- Guido was merely the "implied Satan". Of course i'm not suggesting that Guido is a malevolent godlike being, his inclusion in the expression is merely a incidental result of Chris's idol worship of "everything Guido". Although, to be fair, I guess i may have embellished a bit by using the word "rabbid", and for that i apologize. But to respond to your assertion that i'm being hypocritical: nonsense. Stating facts is *NEVER* hypocritical. Just because a fact happens to be an "inconvenient truth" does not invalidate it's truthfulness. Chris (or anybody for that matter) can choose to be a free thinking individual, or a brainwashed disciple, the choice is his. Even intelligent people (like Chris) can fall under the spell of a "implicit cult of personality". -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
