Hi Dave,

Why don't you use your own FT google group to explain why FT is sooooo
much better than other languages (python included). Then you post
__once__ that you started such a conversation, and that's it. I'm sure
all smart developers will have a look and they will all follow you.

The other ones (the ones, including me, who are interested in reading
about python) will keep on having narrow minded conversations about
their favorite snake-oriented language. Poor guys that we are, we
won't even realize how superior you are, how great your language is,
how faster FT is, etc... We will be jobless in no time, and soon you
will have 90% of the language market and make tons of money.

I wish I could be smart enough to realize this. Unfortunately, I'm
just soooo stupid. So please don't steal my brain-cpu cycles, I need
them for better purposes.

Thanks for helping me
