Q1: Do my modifications throw an error??? If so, then provide this group with the exception message and you shall be redeemed. Q2: Did my "fix" fail to meet the highly generalized qualification of "un-obfuscating the code"??? If not, then explain to this group exactly how i failed. Steven, your highly competitive nature is apparent to any and all who frequent this group. And i'm sure i speak for everyone here when i say that we all appreciate the vast wealth of knowledge you bring to the table. But this time you have allowed your emotions to get the better of you, and now your friendly barbs have become purposeful misrepresentations. Listen, if i make a false statement or give bad advice on this list, then i _want_ someone to call me on it. But for you to cast accusations without providing any evidence to support those accusations, is beneath the dignity of this mailing list. I stand behind my "code fix" and i confidently claim that not only does it meet the requirements, it also runs without error. And if you disagree with my claim, then bring forth your evidence. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
