When he's talking about Tkinter, he knows his stuff, and is orders of
magnitude more helpful than I would be (as I don't know Tkinter). When
he's talking about warts in Python, he sometimes knows what he's
talking about, often ignores facts, and generally is more stirring the
pot than actually being productive. But hey, they can still be fun
threads.

Now, I'm just waiting for the thread in which Nikos has problems with
Tkinter not working with Greek characters as of Python 3.3, and a
singularity is formed that results in the destruction of the known
universe...
