Thank you for confirming for what I already wrote and quoted, but I suppose you
missed some of my previous messages, my dear friend.
Thanks for misquoting me by deliberately snipping the bit about taking
this completely useless discussion offline. Please do not "dear friend"
me as I don't take kindly to people who go out of their way to waste
time and effort on this list. This just isn't going to happen, so
please drop it, or do you not realise when you're fighting a losing
battle, and it's time to retreat?
There are of course other options, you could join in the effort to
produce Python 2.8 or RickedPython. I'm sure that they'd welcome some
additional help and your patch for your absolutely awesome suggestion.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
