No!  Your question was *not* foolish, it was in fact a very good
question; Daniel was just making a joke in somewhat dubious taste.  

(Not in such poor taste that Daniel should apologize, but I'm guessing
that English is not your primary language, so it can be difficult to
identify jokes here.  Because the name "Python" is derived from the
comedy TV show "Monty Python", stupid jokes are common in the Python
community.)
