OK, but only once per decade (my turn:  I found a mole with an unusual color
<wink>).

Cool!  So give us a copy of Great Circle for free, and in turn we'll let you
upgrade their website to Zope for free <0.9 wink>.

You are toooo brave, Charles!  If you ever manage to get Python to compile
on that box, do Guido a huge favor and figure out the right way to close the
unending stream of "threads don't work on HP-UX" bugs.  Few HP-UX users
appear to be systems software developers, and that means we never get a
clear picture about what the thread story is there -- except that they don't
work (== won't even compile) for many users, and no contributed patch ever
applied has managed to stop the complaints.

After that, Linux/360 should be a vacation.
