just a side note we may want to talk about a different thread. I really like 
Python because, if I control how names are formatted, I can write Python code 
with a small number of macros. Editing is a bit of a bitch because I don't have 
the right feedback from Emacs (fookin OSS purists getting in the way). 
Unfortunately, most Python code from tabs has pep-8 formatted names which 
totally screws up speech recognition accessibility. Sometimes I take the code 
and use a global search and replace to create accessible code. :-)
