revenge of the python puzzle

[Michal Wallace]

Okay, so you guys think you're so smart. Try this one!  No
contest this time, I've learned my lesson.  (I suppose if
someone really wants some free hosting bad enough to solve
this puzzle, you could talk me into it, but I'm just posting
this for revenge... Um, I mean "fun".)

If you decode it, see if you can guess what it does before
you run it. Please don't spoil the output for anyone else
who might want to try it... Hint: the earlier thread might
have a clue. :)
