P.S. - There is certainly a video. It just takes an obnoxiously long time to load. Marking something OT does not excuse it. It should still be related. We cannot allow 1000s of OT posts a day, marked OT or not. I agree, adding OT shouldn't be an excuse to just post anything people want, should it? The URL has absolutely nothing to do with python whatsoever. At least not here as I can view it in The Netherlands. It's a news item about the 'rebels' in Syria who supposedly shot down this fighterplane. How someone can link that to Monty Python is worth a oscar for storytelling i think... gr arno -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

At 1:00 the captor asks the pilot to state his name, then asks him to state his quest. I was expecting the third question to be about favourite colours or swallows.

OT: Monty Python in Syria
And now for something completely different. Not programming related, but at 1:20 I was expecting a different question: http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2012/08/2012813103922872697.html I figured if anybody could appreciate that, it would be the folks here.
