    Hey Nick!

    That ship has sailed ages ago. I am not sure exactly when it happened - out of hand - but I personally blame python as the leader of the "out of hand" pack.

    Speaking for myself, I seem to be enjoying this far too much for some strange reason. Senility perhaps?

    Дуже груви,
