Not at all.  I think you misunderstood me.  I read the article and I 
reviewed it (although brief, I stand by what I said).

To expand a bit, the article is poorly written and adds more confusion 
to the topic than it straightens out. (that is not a comment on your, or 
my, intelligence) Most of the article is based on a misunderstanding of 
the concept of python as variable, and that topic comes up here all the 
time with these at the top:

1) python does not have variables

2) python has names bound to objects

3) python of *course* has variables
