Well in just glad this is the top comment, as Python really is taking over the world for a reason.

And of all the bugs I have written in recent memory, not one came down to a lack of static typing. They were due simply to logic errors, flawed assumptions, misunderstood requirements, and good old race conditions. The static typing zealots like to think if it compiles is must be perfect, however this is a mirage. Unit tests in Python can compensate quite well for lack of static typing.
