[Tutor] Requesting input, waiting a fixed time

[Hicks,David P.(NXI)]

Is there a "standard" Python way of accomplishing this?:

Ask the user to answer "Yes" or "No"
If he/she responds, process the answer.
If there is no response for 3 minutes, assume the answer is "Yes" and
process.

Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks.
