I hope you did get a laugh out of it, because it wasn't meant to be nasty.
But it was meant to get you to think about statements about betraying
principles and other inflammatory remarks.
I did have a laugh.
I don't think I talked about betraying principles. I just mentioned that in my
newbie
mind, I experienced what I perceived as a discontinuity. My limited
understanding of
what builds tuples and the (almost always to be avoided) use of eval() were the
origin
of my perplexities.
I'll make sure I approach the temple of pythonistas bare-footed and with
greater humility next time
