Well, I could even take exception to the word "it", since there are many
different Englishes.

By the way, while everyone's got their grammar books out, what's the
possessive of "class" and "classes".

Do we write "this class's __init__() method" and "those classes' __init__()
methods", or what?

regards
 Steve
