And who decides what is useless and what isn't Steven?. You?, alex23?,
Bruno?, Paul? Carl? Who makes these decisions and do *they* make them
without pride or prejudice? Do they approve an idea by someone they
hate because it it good, or do they toss it in the trash just to spite
them, because they have the power to do so? As we can see much
resistace exists against even the ideas of change. How will change
ever take place with such defiance!

I am sorry but i feel many here would not judge fairly based on the
merits of an idea without allowing "buddy-systems" or "pecking-orders"
to get in the way. Sad really, only Python suffers in the end.

Some say the tutorial is not meant for non-programmers, but for
programmers with no Python experience. So! How does that justify
obstruction of the tut? Why not present the same information in a way
both can easily understand? I thought Pythons original vision was to
allow easy entry into programming for anybody -- experienced or not!
Anybody remember "CP4E"?

Is this an ivory tower thing? i dunno, but it seems to be...???
