Apologies. I have hardly any more budget for "replies to Arthur" on
any but narrow topics related to his curriculum writing around PyGeo
(have you seen it?).
I will indeed work to recruit him to some other list for more
broad-ranging discussions, oft times non-Pythonic, which I also enjoy.
Maybe Math Forum, Arthur? math-teach perhaps? Ready for the big
leagues? I'll wait to see if you show up.

Is it better than Zelle's? I think the pro Python case has been
cogently stated in more than a few places. But everyone still thinks
CS is really all about Java. What *shall* we do?
