My point was more subtle than it appeared.  I did in fact
mean the "Python environment", as you mean the Smalltalk
environment...   How I define that environment is perhaps
not obvious, but with a little imagination anyone could
start to think of ways in which I've made *my* Python
_environment_ very, very powerful, easy to work with,
etc.

And yes, I know what Smalltalk can do.
