The python-dev website said I should introduce myself before lurking around for a while.  So hi!  I've been using python for 7 or so years now, live on the east coast of the U.S., grew up in Nebraska, and occasionally play the tuba and table-top games (through rarely together).  I'm looking forward to hearing where the language is going and hope I can be of use after I lurk in the shadows for a while.
