Just Because (Was: Re: [Tutor] Global presets ?)

Folks...

I originally discovered this list while searching Google for the 
mathematical expression to convert yards to inches.  Seems someone 
already did it in a python function.  (I think maybe it was Kent?)

At any rate, I subscribed to the list out of curiosity, partly because I like 
python (even the math challenged like me can manage it!) and because 
I am nowhere near fluent with it.

And I stay with the list, partly because the folks who frequent it are by 
and large quite friendly, and because there are always little tidbits like 
the one below:

How many times have I clobbered a namespace while trying to save a 
bit of time typing...  Yeesh!

So, while most everyone here is better suited to make replies, let me 
just say "Thanks!" to everyone who takes the time to read, and 
especially to those who respond to the wide variety of questions we 
post.

Thanks!

Patric
