Hi,

I have heard some good things about pythoncard. I will be sure to give it a try!

Awesome.

I hope I am not missing messages from the tutor list again. I did not see 
anything from Alan on my question, which you seemed to be referring to... But 
that aside, I definitely agree this is an important principle, which I always 
try to implement.

Thanks!
