Sorry, but this defense is less than weak. Using "python socketmodule.c" you actually get the right answer as the third result, while with the even-more-obvious-to-a-rookie "socketmodule.c" you get it as the *first* result. It would perhaps be fun to experiment to see just how hard it would be to use "socketmodule.c" plus anything else and *not* get the result one was looking for. ;-) (note the wink...) Clearly "Tor" did not try searching Google with two of the most obvious results, but I think at this point he should be considered to be soundly thrashed over the matter and we can all move on. This isn't getting any more interesting... -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
