Hi!
I got your message a little late (today is 9 Mar), but answering anyway.

200% :)
That is - I do all my professional work using Python for about 4-5
years. And I wrote hobby projects in my free time - again, using Pyton.
Once I had been forced to switch to perl, but I did my best to change
job place - I hate perl a little too much :) Of course, it is a somewhat
hard to find python job - most organisation prefer Perl and PHP, but anyway
there some places where I can go.
Currently I am working for FEP - right-wing Russian political
organisation. By some reasons our chief software architect decided to use
Python as our primary programming language, and I am very happy with this
decision :) So we've created and continue developing Web sites using Python
(and ZTemplates)...
Oleg.
