Aye - one thing I've noticed on both py-dev and here, is that when people seem 
especially snippy, sarcastic or touchy, my best bet is to assume it's something 
in real life that's pissing them off, rather than anything I actually said.

And that assumption usually turns out to be pretty close to the mark, and things 
return to being civil after a day or two.

Cheers,
Nick.

P.S. I think this list may experience the problem more than py-dev, since the 
greater number of contributors increases the chances of at least one regular 
poster being in a bad mood at any given point in time. That's a subjective 
impression rather than a scientific fact, though :)
