Thanks Alan! -- even though you spell your name wrong...  <8^)   

I told my fifteen year old son about it and he wants me to get it. He is
teaching my other 3 kids Python as part of their Home schooling regimen. The
are having a great time with it. (Incentive for first 'major' program is a
new Palm IIIxe)

He printed a tutorial he found somewhere and has been teaching from that.
He's moving into Zope now with his Python knowledge and is preparing for a
very-possible summer job build Zope/Python products.

Anyway, thanks for the book info. I thought for sure that ANYTHING new
covering Python would show up here first so that is why I was a bit curious
when I saw it on the shelf at Microcenter yesterday.

Cheers!

Allen

There's been some discussion earlier and also on the 
comp.lang.python newsgroup. Try a search on google and/or 
Activestate...
