i'm discussing a programming language, not the size of your dick. Wow, talk about jumping to conclusions :) Is there something you feel the need to get off your chest? i'm not sure how this has ended up in python-dev; i was responding in python and if you read that group my comments may have made a little more sense (there were some hysterics in a separate thread accusing me of saying python was "dying" because i was concerned about how the discussion groups had evolved).

There certainly was no such accusation. You said that c.l.py was in "decline" (your own word), and I made reference to the ancient "Usenet is dead, news at 11" meme.

Mark's question seems pertinent. ;-)
