Yeah, because nobody managed to do anything during all that time, the Royal Air Force was nowhere to be seen, and the various Resistances in occupied countries were completely ineffectual. >> Some people in Australia are still racist, but racism is >> nothing like the problem it is in America, where you boast >> so much of equality. > > Where do you get your info about America, from CNN?

I have friends who are America experts. Actually, when I say friends... they're more like family really. I don't want to scare you, they can be a little bit inappropriate... and loud... and heavy. Really, morbidly obese. I'm talking about the genuine article here, and I converse with them on a daily basis. And this is distinctly off-topic for this list. Talk about Python or drop the issue, it really isn't as significant as you think it is. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
