And I can guarantee that if I go through my web Python code with a  LESS
fine tuned comb, we will see that it outclasses PHP and any other high level
programming language.

If we want, we can have a 'Code Off'.  Anyone have any ideas for specific,
simple web implementations where we could do our own speed execution tests?
I'll do Python, and anyone who wants to write in another language, may do so
(to include C!).  I'm fairly positive I would win, if allowed to use Psyco
to compile my Python.  If not, then I still guarantee I can beat any other
high level language, I'd be willing to put money on it.
