And that is the very point i am trying to make Micheal! TclTk is SO
old and dated that most people don't even know it exists -- MUCH LESS
TKINTER!

I noticed wxPython did not make your list. Was that conscience or sub-
conscience because i find it hard to believe that none of them use
wxPython... ever. However the REAL point is that they obviously prefer
*anything* except Tkinter and only use Tkinter as a last resort. This
is very interesting Micheal.
