I know nothing about python and none of those

Heisenberg may have slept here.  Actually, we have scientifically determined that 
Heisenberg did indeed sleep here, but we have no idea how fast asleep he was.

Beware of what you speak, for indeed the words we speak make shadows
of what is to come, and by speaking them we bring them to pass.
