definitely much better.
And I think ruby-the-language owes something to python.
OTOH I guess python as it is now is a result of some of the pressure 
coming from ruby (i.e. "hey, ruby is pure OO!" )

Cross pollination is a great thing, I hope the ruby and python (and tcl 
and perl and Io and whatever) communities can keep on taking good things 
from each other.
