This is where I started.  Not sure it is where I end up.

Read his last post  on the Changing the Division Operator
thread.  

He takes zero responsibility.

Its all a matter of correcting Tim's bad design advice (was that actually 
in a thread ?, I only saw reference to it) , Moshe's bad PEP, 
misreprentations
 of his own clear words and intentions,  usenet folk, etc.

Kind of hopeless. 

I've stopped needing to like him.
