Fair enough. Thanks. But I think that it underlines the ease with
which the language is used loosely, which does get confusing quickly
when one is still putting together the concepts. I really appreciated
your lengthy post distinguishing iterators from iterables, and I'm
going to go back over it someday that I'm not sick and I have a spare
neuron or two.
