IOW, the Anti-Humor Subcommittee of the PSU (which emphatically does not
exist), a rough outfit which works to promote snakes over British comedy,
quashed the Happy Laughing Working Group and actively (even though they do not
exist) promotes the boring PHB name in all its propaganda.  The HLWG, having
been defunded and thrown out of office (if there was an office, which there
isn't), toils in exile and hopes to one day reclaim the right and one true
name.

Join the revolt to take back Pythonland!  May the Pythonistas defeat the
Pythoneers!  May the Pythoneers vanquish the Pythonistas!

Long live the Cheeseshop!

The PSU does not, nor ever has existed.  Any statement implying  
otherwise is false and subversive.  There is no PSU and even if there  
is, it has no influence whatsoev
