I havne't seen Kent's reply yet- will have to look when I get home from work. But I 've found some inconsistnacies with map, depending on which order the args were passed in. If the shorter list was passed to map first, as in map(shortlist, longerlist), it behaved one way.
The first argument to map() is a function or None, not one of the lists. You should try map(None, shortlist, longerlist).
