My curiosity gets piqued every once in a second or so. This just
happened to be one of those occasions. I assume you read my questions;
I was curious to see if anyone else had ever thought up something as
utterly twisted and conniving as this, and how one could go about
hacking into such a construct (I might not have said it explicitly,
but I was pretty sure that there had to be a way, because it just
wouldn't be python if there wasn't a way of getting into it).
