I put a minus sign in front of a variable. I had him use the shell to 
check his version numpy, which he just provided. version -- 1.4.0. As I 
think I mentioned above, he's probably  not using the same numpy version 
that I use 1.2.0. Don't ask for an explanation of why I want him on 
1.2.0. :-) I think that pretty much wraps up the problem. He needs to 
get back to 1.2.0.

Presumably I have him somehow delete the numpy site-package, the numpy 
1.2.0 package? Just drill his way dow from the .../lib/site_packages? 
Then install 1.2.0. He's missed the boat on that before by not following 
instructions.
