Is this a 90's thing, where your idealistic fantasies and your
programming LOC must be compatible? I take it Lisp and Smalltalk
went out with polyester, then? I've heard many people say Smalltalk
embodies freedom better than any other language.
OTOH, as a vegan, perhaps you can tell me: what's "organic coffee"?

My opinion has always been that new Pythonistas have found Python the
same way I did: by keeping their ears open. I heard about Python when
its virtues were extolled in comp.lang.perl.misc, so one should never
judge their enemies too harshly. ;)
