Had you actually read my words with *intent* rather than *reaction*,

Unicode. I didn't say get *rid* of Unicode. I didn't say make it
*harder* to use Unicode. Once again - reaction rather than reading.
Obviously, the most vocal representatives of the Python community are
too sensitive about their language to enable rational discussion.
My empirical observation is that the more abrasive posters get rewarded
with more response, while my attempts to engage in rational discussion,
without ad hominems, gets less.
I wouldn't disagree with you. Fortunately Jim has pulled the "storming
off in a huff rather than answer a question anyone actually asked"
defence, so we can go back to debating about important things like how
to spell assignment expressions.
Oh wait... :-)
