Johannes, if you don't know "Yes, Minister" then you most likely do not know the Politician's Syllogism (which now has its own wikipedia page :) And I _didn't_ do it! Honest!)
Something must be done. This is something. Therefore we must do it! :) Unfortunatetely, the Politician's Syllogism is not restricted to television comedies. It's alive and well in Brussels, and mixes very nicely with the Dunning-Kruger effect. Laura -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
