A very interesting read! I wouldn't support some of the more exotic 
elements tacked on to the end (particularly the replacement of the now 
thoroughly entrenched bitwise operators), but the basic idea of 
providing ~op variants of several operators seems fairly sound. I'd be 
somewhat inclined to add ~not, ~and and ~or to the list  even though 
that would pretty much force the semantics to be elementwise for the ~ 
variants (since the standard not, and and or are always objectwise and 
without PEP 335 there's no way for an object to change that).

Cheers,
Nick.
