Porn python programm. The ultimate action

[Luis Cortes]

Do not repay evil with evil.

Do not reduce python or anything else to the level of a prostitute.  
This type of bad publicity would ruin chances of using python in the 
schools as a language to teach students.  Plus a bad image is not 
easily shaken.  It is better to promote python through word of mouth 
and friendly service ( it worked for Microsoft [ at least in the 
beginning ] ).


regards,
Luis.
