Then you should have said so, instead of introducing red-herrings about tired programmers. I must say, some years ago I probably would have agreed with you. I used to dislike "a is not b" and would go out of my way to write "not a is b". But then I decided that was just being silly, and I've never looked back. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
