Looks like that link is already broken.  Try the first half of page:

I can't see any way to simplify the generator Paddy produced,  but 
the thing that bothered me is that it won't work on iterables, such 
as itself. For thar reason I think I'd stick with the separate 
functions,  or write an adaptor to convert a iterable of lists to one 
of strings.
