I say steady on old chap that's just not cricket.  I've been known to 
have a go at rr in the past for good reasons, but when he gets stuck 
into Tkinter he is an extremely useful contributor.  I certainly prefer 
him to Xah Lee, who's attempts at improving Python documentation were 
beautifully torn to pieces here, IIRC by Ethan Furman, apologies to him 
and the actual author if I'm incorrect.
