Prove this. Find "general public consensus" that Python is dead. And then, imitate rats and abandon this sinking ship. I decided to give 3D modelling a go, after watching some amazing work done on Twitch.tv.

Anyone want to hazard a guess as to the language Blender uses for scripting, expression evaluation, and so on? ChrisA
