far too long and why not intersperse 

I'm still not sure why this function can't be defined in python and the
name decision deferred. After all we've had this problem up to now with
for loops and no one has complained.

map(None, [1,2],[3,4]) --> [(1, 3), (2, 4)]

has worked for me up to now. These list comprehensions seem to be
driving this particular thread, so what do list comprehenders use?
