I got the impression that you were serious about learning WSLVT, ...was I wrong? By the way, Enzo's surname is Verratti (two "T's" and two "I's") and he is my direct student :) So Stephen, are you planning to ever come back to actually take a few lessons?

]]> Comment on How to import and own a sword in Victoria, Australia by Ben Miles http://stephenhucker.com/2006/04/22/how-to-import-and-own-a-sword-in-victoria-australia/comment-page-1/#comment-6195 Ben Miles Sat, 21 Nov 2009 04:42:57 +0000 http://www.stephenhucker.com/2006/04/22/how-to-import-and-own-a-sword-in-victoria-australia/#comment-6195 Thanks Stephen - great info. I recently joined the AKC as I have two swords in the U.K. that I have been wanting to bring over here for years but never got around to it as I thought import costs would be astronomical, or worse still, the swords would be impounded and melted down! Since one of them is over 300 years old, there's no way I'd let that happen - I'd rather they stayed in my dad's shotgun box in England instead. Looks like I'll be able to bring them over now; rather than trying to do an impression of The Bride and walk straight through customs with them. As if. Thanks again. :D Thanks Stephen – great info.

]]> Comment on Python on Snow Leopard by PN http://stephenhucker.com/2009/08/31/python-on-snow-leopard/comment-page-1/#comment-6158 PN Wed, 02 Sep 2009 03:12:06 +0000 http://stephenhucker.com/?p=585#comment-6158 Congratulations on getting on the Python bandwagon. If you use a lot of external libraries you may find that being open source projects they have not got around to making 64bit version of their installation binaries available. I lost the ability to do all my cross-platform GUI scripting in wxPython on the Snow Leopard built-in Python it ships with. This is because Snow Leopard Python is running in 64bit mode. Which is great but wxPython is stuck in 32bit land for ages and will throw errors when trying to load up. To fix, in the terminal on OS X type in the following command: # To Prefer 32-bit execution for Python 2.6.1 on Snow Leopard $ defaults write com.apple.versioner.python Prefer-32-Bit -bool yes Then Python will be running in 32bit mode and will be able to work with all the libraries already out their with OS X binary installers. Cheers, PN Congratulations on getting on the Python bandwagon.

What will an appropriate club require? Is there other ways i can have a collection of samuri swords. hello
