 Happy New Year, Dethe!  Thank you for your interest.  You write:
 
->PyPy uses a similar approach to Pyrex, called Psyco, which compiles
->directly to 80x86 machine code (Pyrex compiles to cross-platform C
->code).  This allows PyPy to attempt to be faster than C-Python by
->creating compiler optimizations.  Not sure what the PyPy story is for
->non-x86 platforms.  There is also a project to recreate Python on top

->C-Python (and if anyone can do it, he could).

->Nice to see y'all again.  Happy New Year (or Gnu Year?).

 I'd like to clarify a few misunderstandings I think you have.  Psyco
 is not a technique, but rather a specialising compiler available as a
