Hmmmmm, maybe because nobody did? Just a thought. It can also be that
everyone worked with it but everyone is part of a big conspiracy not
to answer any of your emails just to make you act weird. I'm not sure,
I'm really not sure.

Well, my father's name is Gene, and he's expressed software wants
that I've implemented in Python...so yes, I guess I've done some
Gene Expression Programming...

Yes, people have worked with Gene Expression Programming.

I don't know who. I don't know where. But I'm sure that there have been
people who have worked with it.

I see. You don't understand. That's a fact. I'm sure there are free
online resources about the best way to understand why no one answered
your question in particular, or why people don't answer some questions
in a more comparative way.

See? That's as far as this rude message will get you. Thanks for the
laugh, though.

(On a more useful note, try visiting http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/
and thinking real hard for a minute or fifty: why?)

Not me, and I'm not expecting too. In addition, I'm not actually trying to
figure out if anyone else is working with Gene Expression Programming
because:

1) I'm busy at the moment trying to improve my python for other reasons...
and...
2) I'm not sure whether Gene Expression Programming is a good idea.

How do you know people in hell aren't doing any programming in Python?
Especially "Gene Expression Programming", I mean, honestly...

I actually expect hell to have the largest computing powers in the universe.
What do you think how many IBM, Solaris, don't-ask-me-what machines admins
have already sent down there?

Seems like they'd have trouble with cooling problems...
(okay, I was just told yesterday that "hell is hot" is a
culturally relative thing, and that the Nordic version of hell
involves extreme cold. ymmv)

Common sense. In hell, everything is hacked together using Perl.

That depends on the rate at which hell is expanding. If it is
expanding at a slower rate than souls entering, it is exothermic
and pressure will increase until all hell breaks loose. If it
is expanding at a higher rate, it is endothermic, and temperature
will drop until hell freezes over. See
