PS. a side effect of the for-in pattern is that I'm beginning to feel that Python might need a nice "switch" statement based on dictionary lookups, so I can replace multiple callbacks with a single loop body, without writing too many if/elif clauses.
That's funny. I keep wondering if "match" from the ML world would make sense in Python. I keep thinking it'd be a really nice thing to have. -jj -- I have decided to switch to Gmail, but messages to my Yahoo account will still get through.
