2.x?!  You were lucky. We lived for three months with Python 1.x 
in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the 
morning, write our 1.x code using ed, eat a crust of stale bread, 
go to work down in machine language, fourteen hours a day, 
week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our 
Dad would thrash us to sleep wi' his belt...
