Steven, "presumption of good faith" is typical of the disingenuous remarks that have permeated your posts in this thread. Early on, I misrepresented you by claiming you thought Skybuck's proposal was "nutty" rather than that you simply and reasonably disagreed with it [*1]. I also used the phrase "makes no sense" implying it came from you rather than from Skybuck as it had [*2]. However in pointing my mistake out [*3], you did so with remarks like: "You're making that quote up" "that you would invent such a bare-faced falsehood "that it is the *opposite* of what I actually said "I don't know whether you are deliberately lying" "you're just such a careless reader" As soon as you pointed out my mistake, I immediately acknowledged and corrected it [*4]. You continued with the outrage and attacks on my character. Bad faith in my part indeed. The nice thing about email is that there exists a record that anyone can refer to if they want to discern the truth. ---- [*1] https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.python/p1E0d1UGeY8/e6Xs56paZSoJ [*2] https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.python/p1E0d1UGeY8/yDJJER6EJiIJ [*3] https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.python/p1E0d1UGeY8/SwMcqPLMwjgJ [*4] https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.python/p1E0d1UGeY8/7fLfIxBG4UUJ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
