Of course not! I can't believe you would infer such a scandalous and
outrageous slur on my character. I demand an apology. ;-)

Man, I would love to do it. (And it should be contributed back to the
Mox guys for their docs too.) Unfortunately the deadline for having my
pycon talk written gets ever closer (on mock if any of you will be at
pycon - obviously it will be an awesome talk and you should all come).
If anyone else writes a comparison I'll be very happy to criticise
(uh... I mean improve) their examples of using mock. :-)
All the best,
Michael

May you do good and not evil
May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others
May you share freely, never taking more than you give.
