milos: "You can't uninstall Python because it will break things" Grant: "Actually, you CAN uninstall Python, but it will break things" I really fucking hate how pedantic some of the people on this mailing list are. milos wasn't wrong. You just chose to take his message too literally. I thought it was pretty clear that when milos said "can't", he really meant "shouldn't". -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
