As entertaining as the story was, please don't give the troll the 
attention he craves. If we ignore him, and refuse to respond to his 
ravings, maybe he'll move on.

The official stance of the Python development team is that 2.7 and 3.x 
will co-exist for a long, long time. Removing 2.x tutorials would be 
cutting off our nose to spite our face.
