I like that. So in my case I'd use 'import time' (which I actually 
already changed last night). I think especially right now, while I'm new 
to Python, it helps me to see 'time.sleep' instead of just 'sleep', so I 
can begin to associate certain functions with their proper modules.

Not to mention, like you said, that importing specific pieces like 
functions tends to look a little messy in the code when they aren't 
qualified.
