I love Python 3, it's way better than Python 2, and there's less and less
reason to stick to Python 2 now. You really should learn Python 3, you
won't be sorry.

But, if you choose not to, there's nothing to be ashamed of. Python 2.7 has
got at least six years of life left in it, and when you're done with it,
migrating to Python 3 isn't like learning a new language. It's more like
the difference between American and British English.
