> did you click on the link he posted a little later? What link? I see only two posts from him in this thread, one at 5:09 and the other at 6:14, and neither contains links. I suppose I should start to distrust my ISP's news feed, because that was how it was this morning and how it still is now. There are a grand total of 10 posts to that thread as I'm about to post this reply. Sorry, but I can't click on links that don't exist. >>YMMV > > no, YVFC. ?? you've lost me there too. Your Very Fucked Computer? I'll agree that some computer around here is fucked if I can't see a post that everyone else can see. -Peter (Well now... I just realized that it wasn't in the same thread after all, and yes, I did see the post, then noticed a reply from someone talking about Greenspun's law, quickly hit "k" to move on to more interesting topics, and never gave it a second thought. Certainly didn't notice it was also Peter who had posted that one, nor realized the connection (probably because I'd already sent my reply and thus flushed the whole affair from my memory). So, in summary, yes I did click on the link he posted, but that was after I'd already replied so I don't think it's particularly useful for us to be discussing it. YMMV again. :-) ) (And I do see the YVFC part now... what was really bizarre was trying to do a search on the web for what that acronym means. Try it... strange stuff. I was thinking there was some weird conspiracy to make people think there was this acronym that was well known but had no online definition.) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
