Very Dissappointing

I posted my first message on comp.lang.python yesterday and was met this
morning with something that makes me so frustrated that I wanted to scream!
I knew there was bound to be several comments about Monty Python but I didn't
think that they would be so blatantly infantile about it. To post badly
formed puns in reply to legitimate questions is at best a waste of bandwidth
and at worst a barrier from anyone who might have any interest in the
language! I know the flame I posted on comp.lang.python is going to be met
with further idiocy but I HAD to do something. I originally write in my post
that I will be glad to leave the list-server but now I'm going to have to
rethink that. Maybe we could start a _moderated_ usenet group.
