Which Python? Ver. 2 or 3? On what machine? With what graphical libraries? How much study would be involved in knowing all (and yes, it matters) of the Python+libs+os aggregate?

And does anyone alive know the above aggregate the way a kid can know Hypercard?

The 'master of all you survey' feeling of a kid on a raw Commodore-64 (or, to a lesser extent, Hypercard) - matters. If you've never experienced it, you are a blind man.

Asking the question re: Python suggests precisely this kind of blindness.

I confess that I do not know how to explain sight to a blind man. Perhaps someone else here is up to the task.
