I'm a Perl guy. Perl is my favorite language... buuut, it's never good to limit yourself to only one language of choice. I'm trying to expand the set of languages I'm familiar with. Python's caught my eye, after seeing a bunch of Perl guys jump ship for Python. I know very little about the language. Why do you like Python and what cool features or design decisions does it have?
