I don't know how much Usenet experience you've had, but comp.lang.python is
one of the friendliest places in the comp.lang universe.  Newbie questions
get answered without derision, and disagreements are handled with spirited
discussion, instead of flames and insults.  Compare, for example, to
comp.lang.c and comp.lang.c++.

That statement is just not true.  I've looked at Ruby, but syntactically it
will never sway me from Python.
