Questions like this should be asked on comp.lang.python or the python
mailing list.  I'll answer if I see it there.

I have to wonder if this wasn't a tongue-in-cheek message sent from a just-created hotmail account, by an existing python-dev participant who's embroiled in the current "do we even need functionals anymore" discussion...


BTW, Herman Toothrot is from Monkey Island.
