Yes my post has a mistake re: polymorphism. It seems self.__class__, whether called directly or indirectly, is always going to refer to the parent of the instance class. My code works only if there are no grandparents. Bummer, but glad to learn something new. It's too bad, I really lean on reload(). It appears to be incompatible with inheritance more than one level deep. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
