Who are they? I'll set them straight!

But seriously, I'm somewhat surprised that anyone would characterize
the Python community as being rude and unfriendly. Have they never
been to comp.object or rec.pets.cats?

Sure, I've had some less than happy encounters with folk here, but I
understood that the tone of the reply I got was in response to the
tone of my original post.
