Probably this is another question: what about using 1 and 0 instead of True
and False?

In (your) jitviewer i see that the "infinite while loops" 'while 1' is
better than 'while True'. Am i right? Is it faster in the validatePhone
case too? Is it possible to remove this (very small) overhead with the JIT?

Thanks
