It is a sad day for me when I see Python programmers writing x=3 or using eight space tabs or putting a space before function call parentheses len (seq) too, but I cope. Its a sad day for me when I see people on mailing lists top posting and not using capital letters or correct punctuation, but I cope with that too. In the long run, why do we always fear people coming from other languages?
