Thanks Andy. How for instance would BVE deal with a return type that could 
not be foreseen. A bloody great case statement is my guess. Templates are 
great but I still think Python is easier and faster to achieve the same, if 
not better, functionality.

I think BVE should remember that sw development is a social activity 
(strange that a social anthropologist doesn't seem to recognise this).
