A good habit for naming your scripts: If you have a script and you
want to name it text.py, or list.py or new.py or old.py or some common
name that might be found in the thousand and one other modules and
programs in your various installations, just use my_text.py or
my_list.py or neil_new.py or something to reduce the chances that
you'll be shadowing without knowing it.
