[Edu-sig] odd drawing problem with turtle.py

I don't see where you've defined a Turtle class to instantiate sir.

Perhaps rename Circle to Turtle and rewrite the circle-drawing expression as:

>     c=Turtle(randint(-350,350),randint(-250,250),10,"red")

You are making progress with a wrapper class for the Standard Library turtle.

That's a well-known design pattern and a good way to get extra features
sometimes.
