Anyway, I don't think there's much purpose to all this paranoia (and yes, I'm the one who stirred it up in the first place). I usually rely on Arthur to come out with the dark motives hypotheses. Now we know that, left to my own devices, I'm able to auto-generate same.

if it's the thomson book, i don't think it's a fraud, but i don't

had, and gave them *my* idea of what such a book should be like, and
just pointed them to "Core Python." :-) then they conveniently
forgot to pay me..., no wait, it was an "error in the accounting
dept," which they fixed, and finally sent across the pond. the main
problem is that they are so many good books on the market now, that i
don't see any reason why anyone should buy it much less publish it.
