Why does this bloody ML want me to respond to the last person instead

Because that's how it, along with many other mailing lists, works.
If it helps, think of it as you receiving a mail from the sender and CCd
to the list. Therefore hitting reply sends to the person who sent the
mail and ReplyAll goes to everyone. Seems logical to me! :-)
It allows me to choose to reply to the OP only or to the group, I use
both depending on the nature of my reply. (About 80% of my replies go to
the everyone.) But some prefer it differently... :-)
Why not the more usual:
import sys, os, imp, stat, \
re, webbrowser, Image, \
StringIO, shutil, datetime
Why not the more standard:
import sys
import os
and so on? http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#imports
Indeed but the OP seemed to want to remove duplicate coding so I assumed
that he included using multiple imports.
Personally I'd probably code the above as:
import sys, os, shutil, stat, datetime
import re, StringIO
import webbrowser,
import Image,
import imp
Which groups things into roughly related categories - system,
strings, other...
OTOH I ignore large chunks of Pep 8 because I find its style harder to
read than the one I'm used to. But then, I'm not contributing to the
standard library etc... Style is largely a matter of taste.
