Yeah, it was more the implementation that I had in mind.  From reading 
a short bit about PythonNET I learned that it is only one way.  You can 
only write python code to script the CLR, but no CLR code can call the 
CPython runtime... yet.  It seems PyObjC has achieved that already, 
though.  Thats certainly an appealing method of writing Cocoa apps!
