I find him offensive, and a pontificator as you said, but I don't think he is a moron. He has complained about Python's docs, and that being an interest of mine too, I visited his website and thought a lot of his criticism's were spot on. Unfortunately I didn't think his proposed solutions were very good but that's not surprising, it is a lot easier to recognize problems than to fix them. > In a sense, I envy him.

It is easier to do from an anonymous account, although some people here have said they ignore posts from posters without a real identity. But my opinion is that c.l.p is not very receptive to unorthodoxy unless you are a member of the club (in which case you know better than to be unorthodox). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
