Well, I have seen my share of Python code. And I grew to hate it. It is 
apparently very easy to write code which looks pretty, but is utterly 
unreadable. (It does not help that there are white-space issues, that you 
have to write something like ''', and that hashes are called 
dictionaries.)

But enough ranting, time for bed!
