1) Once again your subject does not reflect anything useful.  In fact 
one of the first things in the digest is:

When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific

2) Don't include anything in your message that's irrelevant to the subject at hand.  If you must reply to a digest, at least trim out all the messages except the one you're replying to. In your case you weren't replying to anything in that digest, so it's a lousy starting point.  Just email a new query to the list at tutor at python.org

3) Don't ask the same question twice in 12 minutes.  It makes people think you're impatient.  Why sometimes, no messages come in a 24 hour period. If you need immediate help, go someplace where they take your money in return for timely support.  People who reply here are volunteers, in various time zones throughout the world, who are trying to be helpful.

As for your question, I posted my reply to it 18 minutes after yours.  Some of that may be because my mail program only polls every 10 minutes or so.  Some may be because I thought a little about the reply before hitting send.
