You may say that, but then virtually everything else you wrote was in strong, even violent, support of changing the default.

So, what am I supposed to believe -- the tiny little disclaimer, or the vast bulk of what you write?

Are you seriously suggesting that the mere fact that you posted from an @python.org address is supposed to mean something to the average list participant here? I rarely even look at the original posters address, and even if I had noticed it, it wouldn't have meant anything to me other than you have an email address @python.org.

And you don't ever look at the signature block, either?

Do you drive on the roads like you drive your computer? By not looking or paying any attention whatsoever to any of the signs or signals? Does your insurance company know about this?

That said, if this really was a subtle way for you to intend to be speaking from a position of authority, then maybe you should read things a little more carefully before you threaten someone on a public list from such a position.

It wasn't a threat. It was a statement of fact -- continued arguing with us on a subject considered long since dead is likely to have results that you're probably not going to like.

And that's the last I'm going to say on this subject. Anything further on this subject will be action, and no words involved.
