Oh right, that's a recent change to the language, I think. OK:
while not usrinp.lower() in list

Mmm, right. Thanks for the cor

But note that 'in' performs a substring search and therefore "yn" and ""
would be accepted as valid answers, too.

while userinp not in 'yYnN':

Or maybe more generally:
while userinp.lower() not in 'yn':# case independent test

Correct way:
while usrinp != "y" or usrinp != "Y" or usrinp != "N" or usrinp != "n":
There has to be a boolean evaluation on both sides of or.
Or in this case:
while usrinp not in ['Y', 'y', 'N', 'n']:

Hmm, my while loop with "or" doesn't seem to work as I want it to...
How do I tell the while loop to only accept "Y" or "y" or "N" or "n"
input from the str(raw_input)?
Thank's in advance!
