I'm sorry Guido if I was out of line.  I'm just a Python user (a strong 
proponent of the language), and have not seen the definition of 
'pythonic' published anywhere, so I assumed that it was open to 
interpretation, as I've seen others make assertions that feature x or y 
"is pythonic".

Is there a sanctioned definition for that term?
