I have a simple experience which to me demonstrates python must be fairly 
readable.

I gave a copy of a small utility to a friend of mine, whilst running it 
he found an obscure case that would cause a crash, he has only limited 
programming experience of any sort but from the python trace-back he was 
able to read my code & made a suggestion of what he thought would fix the 
issue, this suggestion was spot on.
