Well, if I delete it, I get a similar but different message:

An error has occurred while loading `/Users/chris/.emacs':

Wrong type argument: symbolp, ("python" . python-mode)

Here is my .emacs:

(custom-set-variables
  ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
  (setq auto-mode-alist
      (cons '("\\.py$" . python-mode) auto-mode-alist))
  (setq interpreter-mode-alist
      (cons '("python" . python-mode)
            interpreter-mode-alist))
  (autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python editing mode" t))
(custom-set-faces
  ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 )

TIA,
C.
