That's true, but I think needs to be said a bit more emphatically. There's no reason to call it anything other than "self" and a newcomer to the language would be well advised to not try and be creative here. Using "self" is virtually universal, and calling it anything else will just lead to confusion by other people who have to read your code. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
