"This hammer is stupid. It's very uncomfortable, and it's not hard and heavy enough to get the nails into the wall." "It will work better if you hold it in the other end." "Don't tell me how to hold my hammer. It's just built wrong. This cold and hard thing should be in the other end!" ;^) Seriously, it's not a matter of right or wrong. It's a matter of trying to understand how a tool is intended to be used, and to adjust to that. I'm not saying that all Python programmers should be some kind of Guido clones, there's plenty of room for variation, but it usually pays to be adaptable. Python fits my brain. I felt that from the start. YMMV. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
