Thanks for the link to this article.  I really enjoyed reading it.  In
fact, so far every article I have read by Joel Spolsky has been both
an enjoyable and educational read!

Near the very end of the article he says, "... And when you need to
hire a programmer to do mostly VB programming, it’s not good enough to
hire a VB programmer, because they will get completely stuck in tar
every time the VB abstraction leaks..."  That has me wondering:  Where
does the Python abstraction leak???
