[Pythonmac-SIG] MacPython logo redux

[Craig Amundsen]

Hi -
 
Just to toss in some un-needed (Monty) Python trivia. The 16 ton weight is most likely a reference to the Self Defense skit wherein the instructor has the students attack him with pieces of fruit. He then defends himself by having a tiger kill the student, dropping a 16 ton weight on the student, etc.

PS - I vote for a somewhat more cartoony snake.

The one symbol I have always associated with monty python is that 
massive cartoon foot that squashes everything. I can't believe that is 
not used by anyone. To be honest, I don't even know where the 16 ton 
weight comes from. I'm no monty python expert, just a normal joe, but I 
thought I would know the most well-known stuff, and the weight doesn't 
ring any bells.
