Why is concurrency important? Do you really work on 64 core platforms all the time? Erlang and friends seem like a language from the year 2020 when we'll all have 1000 cpus in all our laptops. Right now I don't see a need for it. Furthermore, the holy grail of parallel computing is to *automate* all the parallelization. I've heard IBM is making inroads towards this with their cell processors. In that case perhaps we can bolt on "automatic parallelization" to Python instead of learning a new language and techniques.
