Why did Quora choose Python for its development?

[Ethan Furman]

John,

You say English is not your first language.  Let me assure you that the 
words you chose to use in reply to Stephen were vulgar as well as rude, 
and did more to lesson the overall friendliness of this forum than 
Stephen's adversarial style.

You usually have interesting and informative posts -- please don't 
resort to this tactic.
