Thanks, Sean. I was worried that it might teach some things that are
no longer used in the newer version of Python but it seems like a
"must-read" nonetheless. Interesting that it is not really like
"Programming Perl", which is pretty well-known but doesn't take a
"tutorial" approach at all (it's more of a reference).
