Neat. I think I see a few echoes of De Stijl esthetic in Python.
"Proponents of De Stijl sought to express a new utopian ideal of spiritual
harmony and order. They advocated pure abstraction and universality by a
reduction to the essentials of form and colour" from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_stijl
The group was one of the best things to come out of the Great Stupid War.
I wonder who is next. Van Doesburg, the group's BDFL?
(I know... wait ;-)
