	Well, the first problem is that you can not do assignments there...

	Comparison would be

		if Foo == False:

OR

		if not Foo:

(Python considers: 0, False, [], {}, "" all to be "false" so a comparison
to the constant False is seldom needed... And when it is, it may be better
to use identity check
		if Foo is False:
)
