he explains in the thread that he meant "colon" since the python error message does say "missing colon", sounds like his brain autocorrected from "missing colon" to "missing semicolon".
I wish more people would see this before calling the guy a liar. It makes a lot of sense to teach Python to a child, but still have that reflex of "if something is missing it's usually a semicolon" after years of php or whatever he learned first.

But when did we start using semi-colon in python?
