Exactly, Mr. Lee is a self-proclaimed troll (http://xahlee.org/Netiquette_dir/troll.html). Actually he seems to be more than a plain troll; the style of many of his posts is indicative of one or more mental disorders, so he'll probably continue trolling even if he's ignored. Nevertheless, I agree that ignoring him will minimize his impact. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
