For those who have long ago consigned Mr. Lee to a killfile, it looks
like he's making an honest attempt to improve Python's documentation
here.

Mr Lee, I hope you will submit your documentation changes to python's
patch tracker on sourceforge.net.  I don't fully agree with some of what
you've written (e.g., you give top billing to the use of functions like
re.search while I would encourage use of the search method on compiled
RE objetcts, and I like examples to be given as though from interactive
sessions, complete with ">>>" and "..."), but nits can always be picked
and I'm not the gatekeeper to Python's documentation.
