I've always found comp.lang.c to be a rather dangerous place as
well.

Of the newsgroups I read, c.l.python is probably the most
friendly and has one of the highest S/N ratios.  People who
would have been roasted alive in other newsgroups for their
laziness or presumptuousness get surprisingly gentle treatment
in c.l.python.  I do know of a few low-volume mailing lists
that are probably as good, but for a Usenet news group with any
volume at all, c.l.pythong is exceptionally good.
