Quest for Massage, Project Status Update

Now that Trivial Thoughts is listed on the Python Programmers Weblogs list, I thought I'd give a give a quick summary for new readers (if any!)  Trival Thoughts is a weblog mostly dedicated to thoughts and discussion on programming projects using the Python language.  The current project, half done, involves designing and writing a specialized robot that accesses an appointment schedule posted on a web page, finds the first available slot not in conflict with my other appointments, and posts and appointment reservation.  In the process, much is learned about grabbing web pages, processing HTML and XML, doing date comparisons, and more.  The full code for each evolution of the project is given, with discussion of many interesting code snippets.
