Hardly surprising that so many experienced Python people no longer want
to give their time, as the bib fitting, spoon feeding, nappy changing
politically correct nambies are taking over. Don't do any research,
don't tell us your OS, don't tell us your python version, but we'll
still answer your question for free. Yuck, this approach makes me puke.
