Well, I can agree with that principle - which is why I've been on
vacation from this absurd brouhaha for a while. I'm happy to say that
I've been too busy to argue about how to vote on the method for a vote
that's just an overhyped popularity contest to pay any attention to it.
I've even put some of the time I saved into actually working on using
Python to do what needs doing. Other bits have, alas, been squandered
on shovelling snow.
It's been very nice - reminded me of why I fell into this time sink in
the first place. I'm afraid it's also why I will likely be dropping it
from the news spool eventually. Talking about my favorite langauge is
a wonderful, thoroughly enjoyable pastime, but ultimately I enjoy
getting work done even more.
Now if I can just pull myself away.... must resist... undertow...

Have fun storming the windmill!
