nobody pitching a PEP on c.l.py gets off easy. By the time someone has posted a few revisions of any PEP, they've been through fire. You just get more of everything (both pro and con). Keep that in mind next time you reject a PEP -- the author went through a minor suburb of hell to carry it that far.

Truer words were never spoken.
