The UPS hub in Nashua seems to be unusually bad, even for UPS.

Let's be clear here, Py3 isn't new territory. Python 3.0.0 was in

Hi,
I found out that Martha's Exchange Restaurant has a function on the

Other than the "Recently" part, your experience matches mine.
Shipping eats boxes, but this isn't news.
My favorite was a story told
One package with liquid contents (agave nectar in plastic jugs)
destroyed, then after writing me a note saying that, they returned the
soggy box to the vendor claiming there was an address problem and it
was undeliverable. Since about 5% of the agave nectar was delivered
on the outside of a packag

I'm not comfortable going with 3.x yet. We have vast amounts of

Python downloads for windows are right on the website. Unless you have a

it from python.org
