He has deleted all my postings regarding Python regular expression matching being extremely slow compared to Perl. Additionally my account has been suspended for 7 days. Such a dickwad. Your opinion of animuson is off-topic for this list. StackOverflow is explicitly for technical questions with technical answers. I believe opinions, languages comparisions, and flamebaits in general are explicitly banned and subject to removal and possible banning. So are subterfuges like phrasing banned topics as questions. Given your behavior here, I am 90+% sure animuson's action was appropriate. -- Terry Jan Reedy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

And why would I use any custom version of Python, when I don't have to do that with Perl? Oh wow. You really do sound like Ranting Rick. Always wanting someone else to do the work and carry the burden of proof. Since you don't use Python, don't like Python, and don't promote Python, why are you here on this list? Are you evangelizing Perl? Apologies to the list; I hope I'm done. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
