| 24 | There are differing accounts of the origins of the Python name although the |

| 26 | funny. In the 1998 documentary `Live At Aspen` the group implied that *Monty* |
|---|
| 27 | was selected as a gently-mocking tribute to Field Marshal Lord Montgomery, |
|---|
| 28 | a legendary British general of World War II; requiring a "slippery-sounding" |
|---|
| 29 | surname, they settled on **Python**. |
